Round balloons...

We get married next June and we're trying to find some round balloons for the big day that we can fill with helium, just like these...

Any ideas where we can get them from anyone? Your help will be much appreciated!

    I looked for some a few weeks ago but they're VERY expensive so I discounted it. Was a bit of a palava to find them, I think they are mainly delivered from the USA.

    I will have a look again
    I love surprises!

    Cripes they are expensive! I quite fancied them too but may have to change my mind!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!
