Here are some things to consider when planning your own Casino Party.

1. Keep it legal!  No real money is allowed.  Most of the time your guests will get a voucher for a certain amount of dollars which can be exchanged at the tables for chips.  Not potato chips silly….You will want to check with your local/state gaming laws to ensure you are keeping your party within legal parameters.

2.  How many tables will I need?  A recommend 70% table coverage versus the number of guests. Example: If you have a guest list of 100 you should have enough spots for 70 players at any given time.

3. Where do I get Casino Tables?  There are many party rental vendors that specialize in providing casino tables for events just like these.  Many companies are turn-key, offering the complete package so you don’t really have to do anything more than get guests there.  But, of course turn-key sometimes costs more but it saves you hassle.  Convenience.  To find vendors, simply do a Google search typing in “Casino Night Vendors”, or “Casino party supplies” and go from there.

4. Dealers.  You’ll need dealers.  If you don’t go turn-key you can also Google them.  You might need to get creative on finding these.  It is not a good idea to use John in IT or Sally in Food Services because they run a mean Poker Night.  You’re better off to use outside talent that is not known to your guests.

5. CASINO Entertainment.  There are numerous types of entertainment options for Casino Night.  Here are some to consider.

  • RAT PACK ENTERTAINMENT:  Old Hollywood Entertainment, invoking the 60’s Rat Pack vibe with Frank, Sammy and Dean.
  • IMPERSONATORS:  Marlin Monroe, Cher, Elvis.
  • DJ:  Achieve a spectrum of music with a DJ.
  • PAPARAZZI:  As your guests enter the red carpet, have some “photographers” with glitz and glam of yesteryear.
  • PHOTO BOOTH:  Document all those great clothes your guests will be wearing with a photo booth.
  • FLAIR BARTENDER:  Seen the movie “Cocktail” with Tom Cruise?  Have a fancy bartender do a couple of themed drinks with flips and fanciness.
  • EMCEE:  We think an Emcee is a very important part of the night.  It keeps the competition and action going.  He’s the ring leader and motivator for the night.  Especially if you are having a fundraiser, have friendly competition between tables on how much money is being made or have auctions during the betting. A great way to keep the money flowing.
  • JAZZ BAND:  A nice jazz trio is great atmosphere.  You can always add a singer for part of the evening to bring in the Old Hollywood vibe.
  • FANCY LIGHTING:  Why not make it Vegas all the way Baby!
  • BUFFET IS THE WAY TO GO:  If you are having Casino Night, have a Buffet.  This way you can have guests get their food and continue to gamble.  Keep the auctions going and keep the giving going that much longer.
