Our Story
From our first balloon arches to today’s full décor-creations, we’ve always believed that joy is best when shared. At Be Bold Balloons, we bring people together — friends, families, colleagues — in real-life celebrations that matter.
What began as a broader event and costume rental business has now blossomed into something tightly focused: just balloons, just joy. After 19 years in the rental, costume and merchandise world, we made the intentional shift to balloon-only décor. Why? Because nothing sparks smiles quite like a splash of color, the curve of a balloon garland, or that moment someone walks into a room and says: “Wow!”
We love creating those moments — transforming ordinary spaces into photo-ready, feel-good places where memories are made.
Our Mission
Our mission is to fuse creativity with celebration, delivering custom balloon designs that celebrate life’s big and little moments — with style, fun, and heart.

Hey there! I’m Kelli — the face (and hands!) behind Be Bold Balloons, and one of the only Certified Balloon Artists north of the Twin Cities. I’ve always believed balloons are more than décor — they’re pure happiness in color form.
Nothing makes me smile more than seeing someone walk into a room we’ve transformed and say, “It’s perfect!” I love turning creative ideas into bold balloon designs that make celebrations feel magical and stress-free.
