In an industry currently crowded with 'side-hustle' businesses and hobbyists, Salem Balloons and Flowers stands apart as a credentialed design firm. Our studio is led by Ester, a designer with a 19-year international legacy and a professional degree in Interior Decoration from UNIS University.

We believe that high-stakes corporate environments require more than just 'balloons'; they require an understanding of spatial flow, color theory, and architectural scale. While newer businesses often appear overnight and vanish just as quickly, we offer the stability of nearly two decades of mastery. When you hire SBF, you are hiring a credentialed partner who has spent a lifetime perfecting the art of the installation.

The Client: Oregon Hospitality Foundation (Statewide Competition)

The Challenge: Transforming a vast convention center floor into a prestigious "Main Stage" environment worthy of the next generation of culinary leaders.

The Solution: We engineered a massive, two-story marquee display featuring a crisp, geometric silhouette. This was supported by a curated welcome area that managed guest flow and set a professional tone from the moment of entry.

The Professional Touch: The "Magazine" Photo Experience. We designed an interactive, 3D "Prostart" magazine cover. By combining editorial typography with premium florals, we created a high-engagement brand activation that became the most photographed moment of the championship.

From concept development and sourcing to installation and styling, this project brought together florals, produce, branding, and experiential design to support a successful Jo Malone London retail activation inside Nordstrom Portland.
