PLEASE READ BEFORE CALLING THIS COMPANY. I absolutely DO NOT recommend this company. Extremely unprofessional. I placed an order for my daughter's 6th birthday at the beginning of the week for this weekend. $120 for balloons and they got one of the colors wrong, even after having to ask for an invoice with the correct colors (blue and purple). Sure enough, we wake up this morning to see the wrong colors (pink and purple). I obviously wasn't thrilled but mistakes happen and even though it doesn't have my daughter's favorite color, I was sure she would still be excited. As a small business owner

Had a balloon set up for a first birthday and agreed to all the terms. Called twice and sent three emails to give credit card for payment and finally heard back 24 hours before hand and was told he was too busy and couldn’t do the job. He said I left him
Phone calls and sent emails but so did 20 other people and he just can’t be expected to get back to everyone. HORRIBLE way to run a business. Extremely dissatisfied that anyone would treat a customer this way.

At the last minute we decided to have a grad party for my son. Ken was so nice and accommodating. Everyone loved the balloons. Made the party perfect! Will definitely call him again.

Fantastic business. Great communication and suggestions before finalizing our balloon creation. Amazing green camo-colored birthday balloon arch and number appeared in the wee hours of the morning for my son’s 12th birthday. Bigger and nicer than I expected. Extra special appreciation for Ken running back over to our house multiple times to make sure it stayed perfect as long as it could despite the hot and windy weather!! Definitely recommend.

This place is HORRIBLE . They will not answer phone calls or emails and then will say that they get 20 emails/calls a day and why should they expect to answer those? This is after they agree to do a job for you and then 24 hours before hand they will FINALLY return a call and said that you didn't finalize payment so your job will not get done. Very hard to finalize a payment when they don't return calls or emails asking how they want you to pay. Left me high and dry for a babies first birthday. So disappointed and wonder how Ken even manages to run a business.
Thankfully I found someone

Ken and Sandra were fantastic! They made our son’s second birthday even more magical with 5’ tall jungle animal balloons that were the talk of the party. Very easy to work with and nailed every idea I had for his birthday party. Thank you guys, and we’ll definitely be calling you again for our next party!

I would give this company a zero star if I could.
I hope google does not remove this review because it accurately reflects what has transpired. This is the first review I have ever written, which is a measure of the level of disappointment I have experienced today with this company.
I feel like I just got scammed by this company. Ken seemed great in the beginning. I showed him exact pictures of what I wanted and he promised me he would be doing exactly that...we even went through many texts and conversations reviewing details of the type, shape, and color of balloons. He insisted I pay cash for

The customer service was excellent!! Makin Memories made my balloon wall to perfection... they answered all my questions and were very accommodating! I gave them a photo of the balloon wall I wanted and they replicated just it just right. I would definitely use their services again!

While working with the American Lung Association, I used Makin Memories for our balloon arrangements at our Walk, Climb and Expo. They always did a wonderful job and were so easy to work with. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking!
