Casino Parties are the most fun you will have with your friends and coworkers. You get to play all the popular games you find in a Vegas casino without the threat of losing any money. Of course, you won’t be winning any money due to gambling being illegal in most states, but you CAN use raffle tickets to win prizes which adds to the excitement.
Note: if you want to throw a casino party using real cash prizes, you will need to check laws within your state before doing so. Even in states where gambling is legal, you’re required a license from the city/state you are presiding. Eventricate does NOT provide casino parties that involve gambling with real currency!
1. Hire a Professional: Yes, we are biased, but it’s honestly the easiest way to host a casino party without you lifting a finger. Professionals like us know exactly how the night is supposed to go and we will literally run your event on your behalf. Allowing you to enjoy the fun with your attendees. If you are throwing a casino party yourself, you will have to rent tables from an outside vendor that are cheaply thrown together with plastic tables and tarps. there is also no guarantee your delivery will arrive on time. You will also have to deal the cards or games yourself which takes more people away from the fun.
2. Decide on a Budget: If you’re hosting a corporate casino party, your budget is most likely larger. Therefore, you can accommodate the amount of amenities around how many people will be attending. If you’re hosting a private party, you’ll want to start with a comfortable budget and then decide how many attendees your budget will allow.
3. Know How Many People Will Attend: Try your best to estimate how many attendees will be joining in the fun for your casino party. Your host will need this information to know how many tables your event will require. Depending on the amount of extra activities like dancing, photo booth, and food provided, not all of your patrons will be playing casino games at the same time. At Eventricate, we base casino table amounts at 75%-80% total party size. For example, if you have 100 people joining your event, we will provide 75-80 table positions. Each table like blackjack, poker, craps, and roulette have different table position amounts, but this will give you a general idea on how many tables your event will require to keep the fun at a maximum without wasting your budget due to empty seats.
4. Choose Your Location: This is really up to personal preference, there are many event venues to choose from with all ranges in price. We can provide you with a list of venues we have used in the past if you are struggling to decide which spot will be the most convenient for travel and space.
5. Choose the Type of Casino Tables: When it comes to picking out which casino table types you want at your event, you may think it’s best to stick with gaming tables you know your patrons understand how to play like blackjack, poker, and roulette. However, feedback from our clients suggest that some of the most fun they have is learning new games like craps. Our casino dealers have no issues teaching your attendees how to play and how to win!
6. Choose a Theme if you Wish: It isn’t a requirement, but there are multiple themes that you can choose from to really heighten the entertainment and fun. Some clients prefer everyone to dress up in banquet style attire or 1920’s themes. There is no wrong answer when it comes to choosing a theme, but decorations can increase a budget depending on what is required to transform your venue.
7. Have Fun!: Once everything is done, all you have to do is enjoy the night and create memories with your friends and family!
