🍒 What a way to round off the season! 🍒

We were absolutely chuffed to be invited to AFC Bournemouth’s training facility to help host their First Team Friends & Family End of Season Event.

Our soft play, bounce area and ball pit created the perfect space for the little Cherries to play, complete with customised vinyl to make the setup extra special and give the kit that added pop as well as colour themed balloons by

A huge thank you to everyone at AFC Bournemouth for having us. The team were fantastic to work with, and we were delighted to hear that our setup was a big hit with all the families who attended.

A memorable day and one we’re incredibly proud to have been part of. ❤️🖤🍒

Not every garden has a grass surface… but that doesn’t mean you can’t throw an amazing party!!

While inflatables need a surface we can anchor in to for safety when setting up outdoors, we’ve got so many options that work on patios and artificial grass.

Some of your options include:

🎨 Colouring walls
🎈 Ball pits
🚗 Bumper cars
🍭 Sweet walls
🧸 Soft play set ups

So if you’ve been worrying your space won’t work, it absolutely can!

Swipe to see some of our favourite setups for hard surfaces

Pop us a message and we’ll help you build the perfect party, whatever your space 🥳

ROAR but make it girly✨🦖💖

We absolutely LOVED this dreamy dinosaur set up… proof that dinos don’t have to be all mud and greens 🌸🦕

This Mama went all out (and then some!) — every little detail was thought through. From the perfectly matched picnic tableware, to the cutest welcome signage, to the soft, pretty colour palette and personalised vinyl touches… Who says dinosaurs can’t be pretty? 💅🦖

It wouldn’t be New Years Eve if we didn’t do a recap right?
A huge thank you to everyone who has helped us create magic this year. From customers who let us take the creative lead, repeat customers who keep returning, to event suppliers who contributed to said magic.

Does this look familiar 👆🕵️🧐

Our 4th time back at Staplewood for the Southampton FC football team family event. Such a gorgeous space to fill with our play equipment… and the sun even made an appearance ☀️

When our bride & groom asked for something magical to keep their youngest guests entertained (without compromising on their beautiful aesthetic) — this dreamy white castle was the perfect answer 💍🤍
Balloons & blooms created by .south matched to the bridal bouquets made it picture-perfect, and we hear the children had the best time!
