Hey, Hi, Hello!
IT’S ME - ERIKA!
The founder, owner, and creative mind behind the scenes of this little balloon biz called Events by Erika.
My favorite part of designing for an event is hearing your vision and running with it to create something unique and fabulous - that's sure to wow your guests and leave you ready to party again and again!

I HAVE BEEN WORKING IN THE EVENT INDUSTRY OFF AND ON FOR OVER 13 YEARS, SPECIFICALLY IN BALLOON DESIGN FOR THE PAST FIVE.
After spending nine years as an elementary teacher, while also designing event decor on the side - the exciting outreach of event bookings lead me to making this my full time hustle, pressing pause on classroom teaching.
When I am not styling fabulous parties, you can find me hanging out at home with my best friend and Hubby of eleven years, Bryan and running wild chasing my two amazing kiddos, Baya (10) & Eastyn (6), and our little wiener dog Miss Letty!
In 2022, we added our team leader, Bria’Lee to the party! B is the girl behind bringing to life every prep list, on site timeline and making sure our installs run smoothly! B recently graduated from Pitt State with a degree in Event Management and Marketing! When not blowing up events, Bria’Lee can be found cuddling her fur baby Nova and binge reading a Sarah J. Mass novel.
Our content Queen, Rylea joined the scene in 2023 and we have loved the pep and prep she has brought to our events! Rylea is currently attending college and aspires to open her own luxury floral studio! Fun fact: Ry is the oldest and ONLY girl in her family, living with 5 younger brothers! Phew! She also loves a good iced chai latte, extra lavender cold foam, please.
Together the three of us have been out and about blowing stuff up, all around Kansas City. These girls work incredibly hard to bring your visions to life and never fail to put a smile on my face, no matter the chaos we might find ourselves in. Cheers for Team EbE!
