The balloon arch is the most common of all the arch decorations. It is easy to do and very colorful. This type of décor allows for expression of the favorite colors of the couple and sets the tone for a merry making event. The decoration calls for special balloons and it is advisable that you set them up just before the event so they do not burst off before the visitors arrive.
Grape vines and silk strands also make good arch décor. This type needs expert hands for optimum effect. You can tie the silk in ribbon style or leave them to flow.
