This review is only what I experienced as a guest at a birthday event (not my actual booking, but party guest satisfaction is important too lol). Darren seemed friendly and pretty good at making a variety of balloons. Even as he was wrapping up, he made a Lababy for me at the last minute, though he didn't need to go over his time. This was appreciated and the balloons turned out so cute (attached pic). He was able to make many designs that weren't even on the poster of popular or frequently requested styles. Debated on booking him for my daughter's birthday party but was a little pricier than we'd like per child, at the time. read more

Darren is awesome he is professional and kind, he is the best. His work is excellent.

I 100% recommend SoCal Balloons for your event. We had SoCal Balloons as part of the entertainment for the kids at my son's birthday party. Darren ended up entertaining the kids and adults alike. He made a lot of balloons for our guests and was extremely patient with everyone. He is very talented. Definitely worth the money paid. Will definitely be contacting for future events. read more

I would not recommend Darren for his services! He made a commitment 4 months ahead of time that he would offer his services for our sons birthday party which we already had on our invitations! Literally 4 weeks before the birthday party as I was messaging him we are still good for my sons birthday party since I did not hear from him for awhile for a question I had Darren said he is not able to offer his services anymore which was really frustrating! It is hard to find balloon artists plus my son loves balloons so it was a total let down! Darren is really talented but very unprofessional! read more

Reviews speak for themselves! Darren was PHENOMENAL!!!!!! From the beginning (booking) to the end of my event, Darren was a pleasure. I cannot recommend him enough and would DEFINITELY be booking again!!!! read more

We hired Darren to create a balloon arch for my sons carnival themed birthday. The work he did was amazing and his prices were the most competitive out of all the companies I contacted. He was prompt, professional and went above and beyond. He even brought pre made balloon animals, hats, swords, etc. for the kids which were a huge hit. We will definitely be contacting him for any future party! read more

Just used Darren for a first birthday party and he was AMAZING. All of our guests were mesmorized (children and adults alike). He made anything and everything that was requested. His balloon creations were so detailed, some even included flashing lIghts. My pictures don't do the work he did justice they're even better in person! didn't get photos of all of the balloons but they were awesome!! Highly recommend for any event. He was also super professional and a great personality. Some of the kids accidentally popped their balloons and he quickly repaired or re-made the balloons for them. Fantastic service and amazing talent!! read more

My son turned 6 yrs old today and a relative surprised him with a balloon bundle. It was AMAZING. He was beyond excited and us adults were so impressed with the quality of these balloons. The detail was incredible and the delivery was friendly. Even in the age of COVID-19 distancing, the representative was able to bring alot of Happy to my son's day. The balloons were delivered by gloved hands and a masked face. I would definitely use this company for any balloon needs in the future! read more

Darrin is wonderful, we spoke over the phone and he is going to create a heart shaped sculpture for a Valentine's Day event.
