balloonmessages

All occasions

Eighteen occasions, each with its own set of messages. Where there is enough written for a specific person — a mom, a coworker, a best friend — that combination gets its own page rather than a repeat of this one.

Birthday · 83

The default balloon occasion, and the one where "Happy Birthday" printed on the balloon itself already did half the job.

Written for: Mom, Dad, your wife, your girlfriend, your partner, your husband, your boyfriend, your sister, your brother, your best friend, a friend, a coworker, your boss, a teacher, Grandma, Grandpa, your daughter, your son

Anniversary · 32

Years together, said in the space of a bubble balloon.

Written for: your wife, your husband, your partner, your girlfriend, your boyfriend, the couple

Wedding · 33

Congratulations for the couple, on the day or on the card attached to the bouquet.

Written for: the couple, a friend, your best friend, your daughter, your son

New baby · 34

For the hospital room, the front porch, or the box the balloons arrive in.

Written for: Mom, your wife, your partner, a friend, your sister, your best friend, the couple

Gender reveal · 28

The one occasion where the balloon is the announcement, not the decoration.

Retirement · 33

Last day energy, without being the fourth person to write "enjoy the golf".

Promotion · 35

Earned it, and the desk bouquet should say so.

Written for: a coworker, a friend, your best friend, your wife, your husband, your partner, your girlfriend, your boyfriend, your daughter, your son

Congratulations · 31

The all-purpose good news balloon, for the wins that do not have their own aisle at the party store.

Warm without being heavy, for a hospital room or a sofa recovery.
