Galentine [gal-uh n-tahyn]

Noun

1 a super-cool gal pal that you’re totally thankful for, and want to celebrate.

We’re huge fans of Galentine’s Day at The De Luxe Balloon Company. Coined by Leslie Knope on NBC’s Parks and Recreation, Galentine’s Day (celebrated on February 13) allows us to celebrate our gal pals, and the amazing bonds true friendship offers. 

Just last weekend, we were asked to design the balloon organic for Star Hansen of Star Hansen Event’s Galentine’s Day soiree. Her design scheme was inspired by the Pantone color of the year: Living Coral; it’s delicate, lady-like & elegant, and drives every, last detail of her party décor.

Our organic framed the bar in coral and varying shades of white. Florist Wildflowers Floral Design added touches of greenery, and arranged the most gorgeous florals to grace the dining table. We also created large balloon bouquets with hearts, lips and Valentine’s Day favs. Last, but not least: plenty of white balloons for the gals to add their signature lipstick kisses to. 

We were in awe of how this soiree came together. From the luxurious linens by La Tavola Fine Linen to the calligraphy & signage by Kelly Patrice, everything was seamless for a night to remember.
