Remember doing something simliar to a friends room whilst living in halls. It takes a surprisingly lot longer than any of us had expected.

Also, I can most definitely recommend using cable ties (or something similar) otherwise you'll have extremely sore fingers afterwards.

somewhere within this 10 mins of mythbusters is the best way to tie balloons quickly:

part one

part two

*edit*
for what your doing, having giant columns really wouldnt help. however, it would have taken three of them four hours to inflate 2500 balloons, so depending on how many gas cylenders you can use at a time, the best your looking at is 3 hours, since you can just tie them up individually. worst case would be over two days. also, balloons dont generally last very long, so your going to have to time this pretty well

what are you going to do if you blow them all up and then your parents call and say they're staying for one more week? they'll all deflate
