How Do I Make a Balloon Arch Over a Pool?

I am looking to make a balloon arch decoration over a pool for my wedding.

What is the best way to make it?

Answer:

I think that when you are trying to make an arch over a pool, flexibility should be of the utmost concern.

You really don't want to fashion anything that is usually used, such as wood or iron/metal since if there is an accident and the archway falls into the pool, it could seriously damage the pool's liner, etc.

Instead, I would use Helium along with Hi-Float to ensure that they stay aloft as long as possible.

String the balloons on line/ribbon and secure each end of the arch onto cement blocks or something else quite heavy to hold the arch in place over the pool.
