21 Jumbo Ideas for Gold Letter Balloons at Your Wedding

Jumbo sized gold letter balloons have been a popular trend in weddings, steadily rising since early last year. Now, you may think jumbo balloons are only for birthday parties and have no place at a wedding, but I am here to prove you wrong (or at least get you thinking a bit different)!
Big Gold Letter Balloons
There are so many fun ways to incorporate these over-sized balloons. Couples have used gold letter balloons to spell out their names, wedding date, or simply words such as ‘love’.
Gold letter balloons create a perfect backdrop to fill outdoor spaces, for reception entrances, and are even great placed above a cake table. Not to mention, they make fun props for photo booths and engagement pictures — goofing off with your bridal party during the wedding reception anyone?
So here is my list of 21 ideas for gold letter balloons and how to incorporate them into your big day!
Bridal Shower
Bridal showers and bachelorette parties are celebrations before the big day. A fun and affordable way for your maid-of-honor to decorate is to add a little pop of gold balloons to the decor.

2) Last Fling

3) Hooray Gold Letter Balloons
Wedding Decor Backdrops
Gold letter balloons make super great backdrops, photo props, and welcome signage for your wedding day. Balloons come in all different sizes ranging from 40 inches — great for backdrop displays — all the way down to 2 inches — perfect for cupcake and cake toppers!

Best day ever! What more do you need to say at your wedding 🙂
New Last Name
Another fun way to personalize your wedding is by proudly showing off your new last name! Some shops allow you to buy one-off balloons so that you can write your own name or saying.
Here are a few great examples:

10) ‘OMG’ Letter Balloons

This might work really well if the bridesmaids’ first names all started with the letters pictured. Either way, OMG letters still make a statement.
Dessert Table
Balloons make brilliant photo backdrops because they are relatively cheap and easy to setup. We love this fun neon idea from Pop Sugar. If you don’t feel like going the helium route, simply blow up the balloons and stick them on the wall like this cute heart DIY by Studio DIY
11) CHEERS

12) CAKE Letter Balloon 40″
13) Eat Cake
Marie Antoinnette would be proud of how far we’ve come — let everyone eat cake!
14) SWEETS Jumbo Balloon 34″
Custom design by CraftNinjaGo
As if you really need a sign to direct me to the SWEETS table. A sign is a nice touch. But don’t worry, I’ll find the way.
15) DONUTS Letter Balloons

MMMmmmm … donuts. Is there anything else you really need to complete your wedding dessert table?
We think not.
16) Mini Gold Balloon Cupcake Toppers

Loving these cute mini cupcake balloon toppers. They really add a bit of pizzazz to the overall look.
Bride & Groom Photos
You might as well have a little fun with your gold balloons while you are at it. Take the balloons with you as you go off and shoot wedding day portraits alone … and also with your bridal party.
17) Gold Balloon Letters “LOVE”
by Love & Lavender


These oversized gold balloons that spell out LOVE simply are one of our favorites! In fact, we’re such fans that we decided to add them to our shop. Go check them out!
18) XO

Simple – XO. Love this idea where you each get one helium filled balloon for the photo shoot.
19) Use Your Initials
Get the look from Paperboy Party

Initial balloons are always a perennial favorite at weddings.
20) Spell out your Full Names

In case there are any wedding crashers that DON’T know the bride and groom names!?
The Big Send-Off
As with any big sent-off, you want it to be grand! If you are having a mid-day exit, tack some gold balloons onto the bumper for a cheerful exit that everyone will love!
21) CHEERS for a Vehicle

A sweet idea to exit your wedding reception in style. You’ll likely need a bigger vehicle to pull off this look, such as the classic car pictured above.
