Excellent customer service and excellent balloons. SO pleased I ordered the covers for delivery as it was a bit wet and wintry for delivery day. Highly recommend, thank you 🎈

We arranged Balloons to try and make our daughters 21 a bit special due to the restrictions in place at the time. Great service and very helpful while we researched what to order and when. Thank you to the team!!

Placed order quite a few weeks in advance and collected today. Balloon arrangements are lovely, better than imagined as colours are vivid and cheerful. Would definitely purchase again.

Was recommended to yourselves by another similar business which operates in a different area. Would like to say a massive thanks to the balloons you made and how you managed to make the design we requested really quick! Definitely 5 stars for yourself.

I recommend Balloons Are Taking Off 100%. You can place an order as late as midnight the night before you want to pick up or have balloons delivered which is great if you need them at short notice. The prices were very reasonable and affordable. I loved that you could custom design your own balloon and the quality was great. The balloon was delivered efficiently and the staff were very friendly and helpful which makes a big difference.

Great service received. Ordered balloons for my daughter's 21st and they were even better than I expected. The '21' numbers were huge, with balloons attached that matched the others. Survived the journey home perfectly. Highly recommend 👍💯

Brilliant balloons - good communication and easy pickup arrangements. Over a week later and they’re still up, looking good as new! Good quality item and nice to be able to use a local business. Would definitely use again!

Absolutely incredible service! I placed the order online after 10pm on Monday evening and the balloons were delivered on Wednesday lunchtime. The balloons were perfect and the entire family was happy. I will be ordering from here for all our birthdays going forward. Thank you!

I ordered the £60 package for a tiny COVID safe birthday party and could not have been more impressed! The delivery was on time, efficient, and friendly. I ordered the £60 balloon package and was blown away by the quality. The marbled design balloons in particular went down very well. Will definitely buy again!
