Crabapple Decor ✓ ACRA Verified

Crabapple Decor prices on a package basis, which is standard for balloon and decor specialists in Singapore. Market norms for this subcategory run from roughly S$300–500 for straightforward balloon setups (clusters, columns, or small arches) up to S$1,500–3,000+ for full-room installations with backdrops, centrepieces, and custom balloon sculptures. The final quote depends on venue size, complexity of the design, and the number of distinct setups required. Confirm the following in writing before paying a deposit: exactly which installations are included, the setup and teardown windows (and whether these fall within or outside your venue's rental window), a travel or transport surcharge if applicable for the specific address, and the balance payment schedule. A deposit of 30–50% on signing to hold the date is typical in this industry. See the full Decor & Balloons cost guide for Singapore →

For weekend events, six to twelve weeks' lead time is a sensible minimum for balloon and decor work — popular decorators fill their Saturday slots quickly, particularly during wedding season (March to April and October to November) and the December year-end party season. If your event falls on a peak Saturday or involves a large or complex installation, booking earlier reduces the risk of losing the date. For baby full-month celebrations, kids' birthday parties, and corporate events on weekday evenings, four to six weeks is generally sufficient, though earlier is always safer. Confirm whether the date is formally held once a deposit is paid, and ask about the rescheduling policy if an unforeseen circumstance — such as a venue cancellation or a wet-weather situation affecting an outdoor element — requires a date change.

Singapore decor and events vendors typically require a 30–50% deposit on signing to secure the event date and begin design and planning work. The balance is usually due one to two weeks before the event. Confirm in writing what the deposit covers — date hold, design consultation, any custom-order balloon colours or personalised elements — and whether it is refundable or transferable to a future date if you need to cancel. Also ask about public liability insurance, particularly if the event is at an HDB void deck, condo function room, or hotel ballroom where the venue management may require a certificate before permitting setup. Put the deliverables, setup and teardown times, and the rescheduling terms in writing before paying — this protects both parties if anything changes closer to the event date.
