We had Giggly Wiggly Balloons come to our sons first birthday and it was a big hit. The kids absolutely loved all the detailed creations, all shapes and sizes - I couldnt believe the balloon creations being made in such a short amount of time. Easy communication, great value and super professional. We even asked to extend our time and there was no issues. Absolutely stoked with the product, friendliness and work of Giggly Wiggly Balloons. Highly recommend!!

I found Giggly Wiggly balloons from a post asking about easter hampers/treats delivery. I loved the creativity and thought it would be something different to the usual Easter treats. Communication with Chloe was fantastic
- she was wonderful in answering all my questions, and offered me many options to make it special and personalised. I think I have found a fabulous option for birthday parties for the future (hopefully next year).

Chloe is amazing, she was so helpful and friendly and was able to fit us in at short notice. She is great with children and did not disappoint with any balloon twisting requests. I would highly recommend her. I first met Chloe at a friends party and now my friends want to hire her at their childrens birthday parties - she is that good.

Giggly Wiggly balloons provided an interactive story telling show at my Sons Birthday party. They were extremely responsive to my enquiries and made booking very easy. They showed extreme professionalism and were fantastic with all the children. The show was interactive, exciting and was enjoyed by the wide range of ages we had at the party. It even kept the adults entertained. Giggly Wiggly Balloons are very talented and their show was the highlight of the party. I highly recommend them and will definitely have them back at future parties.
