Events and rental: Enquiry form for balloon decorators
An enquiry form for balloon decorators that collects the venue photo, colour palette, setup time and fixing options, so you can propose a design without long message threads.
What makes an enquiry complete for balloon decorators.
A balloon decorator can only make a proposal once it is clear what the space looks like, where the decoration should go and how it can be secured. Enquiries, however, arrive as a message with an emoji and a date. The venue photo was taken from the entrance and does not show the spot beside the stage. The client says pink and gold but means dusty rose with champagne gold. Only in a second message does it emerge that the venue allows no tape, nails or hooks on the walls and that access starts just an hour before the party. Every answer prompts a new question, while the client is also asking other decorators.

From form to assessed enquiry.
Get the space on camera
The form asks for a photo of the spot where the decoration goes, with a short instruction: include the whole wall or entrance and put a person in the frame for scale. It also asks for rough dimensions and whether it is indoors or outdoors. Without a photo the enquiry can still be sent, but it is marked as provisional.
Pin colours down precisely
Instead of a free text box, the client picks from your own balloon colours, shown with photos of the real shades. They can also upload an invitation or napkin that shows the colours. You know whether pink means blush, dusty rose or fuchsia before you write a proposal.
Ask about venue rules and access
The form asks what the venue allows for fixing, whether helium is permitted, when there is access for setup and who the venue contact is. If the client does not know, the form marks it as an open point. You can see at a glance what you still need to check with the venue.
Enquiries in one place, not the inbox.
Enquiries now arrive through messaging apps, social media direct messages and the occasional email. The form gives those channels one destination: a link you can drop into any chat. Venue photos and colour samples belong with the enquiry, not in your camera roll between personal pictures. Venue arrangements belong to the client or the venue; you record what you were told and by whom. Your calendar remains the place where you plan setups.
Form or chat
A chat feels personal and matches how clients find you, but details get scattered over dozens of messages. A form is structured but can feel distant. A middle path is to start the conversation in the chat and then send a link asking for the photo, colours and venue details, so nothing gets lost while the tone stays friendly.
Own colour chart or free description
A chart of your own balloon colours makes the choice unambiguous but limits clients who want a specific shade from their branding. A free description gives room but invites misunderstandings. You can show the chart by default with an option to upload a sample, which you then translate into shades you can actually supply.
Call the venue or let the client ask
Calling the venue yourself gives certainty about fixing and access but takes time per enquiry. Letting the client ask is faster, but answers are often incomplete. For venues you work at often, you can store the house rules once, so the form shows them automatically as soon as the client selects that venue.

The form with venue photo, colour choice from your own range, venue rules and access is ready at the start, with a list of open points per enquiry. Together we replay an ordinary birthday at home, and a wedding at a venue where nothing may be fixed to the wall and setup can only start shortly before guests arrive. Stored venue rules and connecting your calendar can be switched on later.

Explore pricing and optionsCan clients fill in the form on their phone?
Yes, it is built for phones, because most clients arrive from a chat. Taking and uploading photos works straight from the camera. Anyone who stops halfway can carry on later through the same link without starting again.
What if the client does not know the venue rules?
Then it is listed as an open point on the enquiry. You can ask the client to check or contact the venue yourself. For venues you already know, the form shows the rules you recorded earlier, along with the date you last confirmed them.
How do we handle colours we do not stock?
The colour chart only shows shades you can supply. If the client uploads their own sample, the enquiry shows it is a non-standard shade. You can then suggest the closest available colour or check whether your supplier can order it in time.
Can business clients send their brand colours?
Yes. Business clients can upload brand guidelines or a logo and say which colours lead. You translate them into balloon shades and show in the proposal which ones you will use, so their marketing team can approve them beforehand.
