Seller Financing Easy to Run Business with training
Step into one of the Southeast's hottest hospitality markets. This established event décor and balloon installation business serves greater Charleston, SC — a premier wedding and special-event destination drawing tens of thousands of celebrations, corporate galas, and milestone parties every year.
The business is fully turnkey with roughly $200,000 in annual gross revenue, a trained team of 9 (1 full-time, 8 part-time), and approximately $51,000 in furniture, fixtures, and equipment included in the asking price. You inherit an operating studio, an experienced crew, established vendor and venue relationships, and a recognized brand built around organic balloon installations, grand-opening décor, weddings, baby showers, corporate events, and seasonal displays.
Charleston consistently ranks among America's top wedding and tourism destinations, and demand for elevated, Instagram-ready event décor continues to climb. This is a rare chance to acquire a positioned, branded operation rather than starting from scratch.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 5
- Employees
- 9 (1 Full-time, 8 Part-time)
- Facilities & Assets
- Located in a popular Business Park, (2,336 SF), on a major thoroughfare in Charleston SC. Studio/workroom + office + storage for décor builds, packing, and dispatch; ample parking. Includes franchise rights/territory, business name/phone, website & social accounts, client/vendor lists, installation tools (inflators, rigging, hand tools), stands/frames/backdrop components, and inventory on hand at closing. Detailed asset list provided after NDA.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- Charleston is a strong event market (weddings, hospitality, corporate activations, birthdays), and “photo-first” décor continues to grow via social media. Competition is mostly independent decorators, florists, and party-rental firms; this business benefits from a recognized franchise brand, defined service offerings, and repeat/referral relationships with venues, planners, and local businesses. Buyer can win by being responsive, packaged/priced clearly, and reliable on installs.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Excellent add-on for florists, bakers, planners, photographers, party rentals, venues, or signage/print shops—bundle décor with existing services to raise average ticket and keep referrals in-house. Growth levers: expand corporate/recurring accounts (grand openings, hotels, retail), preferred-vendor partnerships with venues/planners, upsell backdrops/rentals/props, tighten install minimums and delivery fees, improve scheduling/labor efficiency, and invest in SEO/Google reviews and targeted ads.
