Is it too childish to tie a balloon to each chair for a 21st birthday party?

Question

Im debating on where to put balloons for my party. The theme is purple and white and everything matches. The ballons are going to be different types of the color purple. So I saw some examples of decorations online where people tie the a balloon to a chair. So would it look bad if I did that to all the chairs? I am using round tables that have 10 chairs and maybe a total of 8 tables which is 80 chairs. Is that too much? is it too much like a childs party? ( my party is a 21st) If so, where else could I put balloons in a party room?

Answer 1

sounds like fun. i sooo would do it. theres nothing wrong with being a kid and haveing fun

Answer 2

Nothing wrong with it. I think it sounds cute. I'd actually tie 2 or 3 balloons to each chair. Make sure you use helium so they float, and tie them at different levels. Just one looks kind of tacky. You can also fill the ceiling with purple and white balloons. No strings, just balloons. It looks so pretty, especially if you can get white glittery balloons. (We did this for my Dad's 50th birthday... the balloons just fall down after a day or two... so you don't have to worry about gettin them down.) But for a more grown up feel... I'd stick to one shade of purple, most likely a dark shade. It looks more classy than all shades of purple.

Answer 3

not if the balloons are full of nitrous oxide.

Answer 4

you can put some paper inside each balloons with messages like; "give a kiss to the 21st guy/girl" or "you have the chance to do whatever you want with the 21st year older guy/girl" that's gonna be interesting and no childish :P

Answer 5

It's a little childish. Just get those things to hold balloons down. (about 2 or 3 bunches with ribbon)

Answer 6

maybe use the balloons on really short strings as a centeppiece

Answer 7

DON'T tie them to the chairs. It sounds like you are having a pretty nice party, and that sounds a little tacky.(I'm turning 21 on monday) Just let them float on the celling

Answer 8

That's way too childish! May be you can put on half the chairs.Or put it on the center of the table.

Answer 9

i dont think it would be too childish, but what about an arbour, sort of entranceway thing done out of the balloons instead.

Answer 10

just weight them down with weights and leave them around the room, or dont tie ribbons to them and leave them floating on the ceiling.
