Michella is the face and balloon artist behind Balloon Deck, where she brings her colourful ideas to life and makes every event unforgettable.
Following 13 years in the corporate space, she discovered a new passion - turning event styling and decorating from a fun hobby into a small business.
With her Filipino background, Michella has always loved hosting and planning memorable parties for her family and friends. She treasures quality time with loved ones, Filling every gathering with warmth, joy, and a little extra magic.
Balloon Deck is her playful outlet, a way to show the fun, creative side of her personality. Meeting new people, collaborating with other talented vendors, and putting smiles on her customers and clients faces is what motivates and encourages her.
More than just decorations, Balloon Deck is about creating colourful spaces and creating special memories that leave a lasting impression, and designing spaces that are post worthy.
The Balloon Deck Family also includes other family members, such as Michella’s partner, whom she calls her “personal step ladder” and who is the business prop maker, problem-solver and quality control. He has a cabinet-making background and has a wide experience working on luxury homes and uniquely styled interiors, including integrated high end appliances and technology, private underground carparks/basement retreats, custom styled home offices, designer walk in wardrobes and even handcrafted furniture. He designs and builds the custom props for the business. He also assists where required with on-site setups, ensuring installations are safe, compliant with venue requirements, and easy to transport and assemble.
Michella’s two sisters, her mother and close friends have contributed behind the scenes and also assist as part of the day-of crew for larger parties and events. Michella affectionately calls them her “Sparkle Specialists and Creative Collaborators”, as they bring energy, fun, and friendly face-to-face customer service while interacting with the customers, venue staff, and other vendors. With her sisters extensive experience in customer service and events, including wedding planning and coordinating, they bring a strong background in management and organisation, applying their expertise to events where required.
In addition the Balloon Deck family assist with late-night pack-downs, they provide valuable feedback and ideas while shaping the vision for upcoming events, to bring each celebration to life.
Michella is incredibly grateful to everyone involved with Balloon Deck, no matter the size of their contribution, they all play a vital role in what the business is today.
Running a small business involves much more than what meets the eye. A lot of behind-the-scenes work goes into administration, marketing, planning, communicating and preparation for each event. There’s also a significant amount of time and effort required to build and transport props for all events big or small.
Proper preparation and coordination on event day are crucial to ensure a seamless set-up, efficient pack-down, and, most importantly, an installation that lasts throughout the event.
I want to thank all of my family and friends (Partner, Mum, Sisters, In-laws and Friends) who have all helped me along the way with any of the behind the scenes that goes into each booking.
As well as customers recommending me to their family and friends, and sharing my work on social media. I appreciate you all!
With love, Michella xo
