Dena did a great job for our company event. she was a hit with the kids!
This was the second year that we used Dena for a community event, and she didn't disappoint. She is incredibly talented and did an amazing job connecting with our guests and producing an endless number of smiles!
She was great. On time and so sweet! She is amazing with balloons! The kids and adults had a perfectly fun time and she made everything that was asked for!!!
Dena was the best. Personable, arrived on time and talented beyond expectations.
Dena is talented in her craft and she was great with the kids, but her interactions with the individuals in charge of the event were less than stellar. It rained for a portion of the event. She was under a canopy, yet she continued to complain about the weather. We were very pleased with the others that were hired for the event (face painter, bounce house attendant and snow cone machine attendant) who all understood the weather is beyond our control and appreciated that canopies were set up for each station to shield them from the sun initially, and then the rain for a short time. I won't hire Dena for future events, but if you have it indoors or can guarantee great weather, she may be a good fit for you.
Response from Dena The Balloon Lady:
I am sorry that you felt I was complaining. I was standing in a puddle of water up to my ankles and water was getting on my supplies. I completely understand that the weather is out of your control! I had to also think about my things and not getting them damaged. I again apologize for any complaints. I appreciate your understanding of my situation as well.
Dena was amazing, I would highly recommend her for any event. She was great with the kids and families, arrived on time and was ready when the flood gates opened. She is incredibly talented at what she does and was a pleasure to work with.
Dena was courteous and professional for our 4th of July event! She met every challenge the crowd threw at her and smiled throughout the whole gig. After honing in her craft for the past 17 years, I can totally see where the excellence shines through. I would definitely recommend Dena The Balloon Lady for any function with a crowd eager for something spectacular!
Who said that balloon twister can only entertain kids? We had Dena in for an adult office party! She arrived earlier and stayed longer than planed to make sure everyone gets a balloon! We had so much fun!
Dena was very professional, so good with the kids and incredibly talented with the balloons!
The booking and the whole process was so easy and she was kind, professional and talented.
Dena did a great job at company picnic. All the kids loved her and her balloons.
Dena the Balloon Lady was wonderful to work with! We hired her for a corporate event down in Branson. We had about 35 children of all ages! Everyone loved the balloon art and appreciated how patient she was with the kids! She even made balloons that looked like twin baby girls for a mom who was pregnant with twins!! Booking was super easy and Dena was very timely on her replies. We would totally recommend Dena for any party!!
Dena was absolutely amazing! So friendly and talented. She was the hit of the party! Will highly recommend her to all my friends!!!
Dena was a great addition to our fall carnival. The kids loved having her make creations for them! She showed up on time and had everything she needed! We will definitely contact her again.
I wish we could hire Dena for every single event we do because our clients RAVE about her skills! She arrives before event with a huge smile on her face, is so friendly and welcoming to every kid and can seriously make ANYTHING someone asks her to! She is very skilled and quick. We love Dena and can't wait to hire her again and again!!
Dena was absolutely wonderful! She was great to plan with prior, showed up early, and was so wonderful with the kids of all ages at our event. We had probably 500 people, and she was busy majority of the time. Her balloon twisting is creative and her experience shines through her work. We will be planning to book her again for next year's event and recommend to others! Thanks so much Dena!
Dena is professional, prompt and great with the kids! I didnt have to worry about a thing:)
Everyone at my wedding reception loved The Balloon Lady! The kids at the wedding especially loved her! I highly recommend hiring her for your event!
Dena was great with the kids. We loved having her at my son's birthday party! The younger and older kids loved her, even the parents. She made the party extra special for everyone! The birthday hat was amazing too!
GigSalad hired Dena The Balloon Lady for the Laser's Family Night. Dena was the perfect addition to the evening and provided phenomenal balloon twisting! Every family walked away from her table with a giant smile! We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated balloon artist. We look forward to working with Dena in the future!
She did great performance.
Thanks.
I received rave reviews from my staff in regard to Dena's services. Thank you so much! We will definitely use her again!
GigSalad sponsors many events and loves to use our members. Dena has been a member of GigSalad for over five years. She has a variety of balloon art from which both kids and adults can choose. She is fast and fun. Always engages the crowd. Thank you. Dena. We also got to meet her Dad who started her in the business. Thankful for that inspiration.
Dena was on time and went right to work making amazing balloons! The kiddos (and parents) were impressed with the intricate designs and the speed of work. Hired for school/class party, would hire again and will recommend!
Dena was great to work with again! She delivered exactly what I requested on time again! Kiddos loved the giant Peter Rabbit she created for a preschool Easter party.
Dena was a hit at our egg hunt! We will definitely call her again!
Dena was a great addition to our event. This is the second time in a row we have used her for the annual event and she is so easy to work with and the students love her!
Dena did a great job making sea creatures for my son’s birthday! She’s great to work with too!
She showed up on time, worked to please the children the entire time. A very professional experience.
Dena provided 25 balloon dogs for my daughter’s first birthday party for the kiddos to play with. They were such a hit! Definitely will be using her again!
Dena was on time, and quick to set up. She was very good with the kids and was a popular spot during our event. She had some new balloons that were perfect for our Fall Fest event.
Amazing work! She made sure each kid got exactly what they requested. If it was something she wasn't familiar with, she looked it up and made it exactly like the character!
Thanks Dena for your professionalism, timely responses, and great work at our event! You made it a success.
This was the second party I've been to using Dena. She is amazing at what she does and was very easy to work with. A lot of the parents were asking for her contact information when the party was over.
She made the most creative things, everything the kids asked for!
Dena came to our 5 yr old daughter's birthday party and kept everyone happy and entertained, including the parents! We were all extremely amazed at how well she made every type of balloon animal asked for, including two octopi! Definitely would recommend her for any children's even you have.

You can expect to be wowed and amazed as long skinny pieces of latex are transformed into works of art right before your very eyes. You can also expect a corny joke or too to be thrown in to amuse and entertain! Need to transform a space, why not use balloon decor. Turn any room into an undersea paradise or an perfect arabian night. Balloon decor can be a perfect way to add to any event, big or small. Balloons can be very elegant and very fun! The Balloon Lady will come in, install jaw dropping decor, and then come back to take everything away! All you have to do is enjoy the party!
My name is Dena Atchley. I am a resident of Springfield Missouri. I am a mom to a 15 year old daughter. I was a public school teacher for 4 years before having my daughter and choosing to stay home with her. I then taught 4 years as a preschool teacher. That was when I started venturing into the world of balloon twisting. Since then, I have become consumed with balloons. I love to entertain children and adults alike. I love the look on a child's face when you make the exact balloon he was wanting! I specialize in birthday parties, school carnivals, church picnics, and company picnics. I am able to help incorporate balloons into almost any event. I also love to take a blank space and fill it with balloon decor to transform it to fit any theme imaginable!
