Party dresser / balloon displays / chair dressing

I have recently come of out work and would like to have my own business doing:

chair covers and sashes
table decoration and centrepieces
balloon displays
twinkly backdrops
favours
candy buffet
chocolate fountains

My friend has asked me to do her sons christening buffet and a candy buffet so this gave me the idea to get into this.

Does anyone have any information on where to buy all the equipment at wholesale prices.

Also, if I was to offer a buffet service what restrictions are there, will I need just a basic food and hygiene certificate or more?

My local college used to run a balloon display course but this has stopped now. Does anyone know of any in surrounding areas to St Helens. I have been unable to find this on the internet. Or any courses for creating really extravagant centrepieces and displays with other things.

Any other information or ideas would be great thanks :)
