"We are all experiencing a different Valentine's holiday this year," said Frei. "I wanted to do something memorable and over the top that people could enjoy safely. It gives people an opportunity to come together and share the love. Our number one mission is to bring joy to the Chicagoland area through the art of balloon design."
