So you want to have a
casino party! In case you haven't experienced "Casino Night"
already, here are some details of how it works..... How
does it work? When
your guests arrive, they are issued a pre-determined amount of
"funny money". This can be in the form of a ticket, a
large value casino chip, token or even custom made play
money. The
"Players" then go to their favorite tables and redeem
the above mentioned item for casino chips to play the games. The
parties typically last about three hours and at the end of the
night the chips are redeemed for either raffle tickets or
vouchers for the amount of funny money that they have.
If
it's the raffle ticket system, players will examine the prizes
that are offered and place their tickets in the basket or bowl
in front of the prizes. A player that really wants to win a
particular prize might place all of his or her tickets in the
bowl of the prize to increase their chances of winning. Another
player that likes three or four prizes at the raffle table might
divide up his or her tickets for a chance at one or even all of
them. Another
way to win prizes is to have an auction for them. At the end of
the evening, a player is issued a voucher for his or her
winnings and then they have that amount available for bidding on
the prizes. Where
do I get the prizes? It
depends on the event. Company or home parties usually provide prizes
while fundraisers might get local companies to sponsor the party
in exchange for advertisement of their business. Texas Casino
Parties provides a "High Roller Award" for every
party.
When would I have a
casino party? It
might possibly be easier to describe when NOT to have a casino
party. Casino parties are great for conventions of several
thousand people right on down to a home party of 5 to 10 people.
We are available for (among other things) company parties, team
building events, home parties, proms, graduation lock-ins, bar
mitzvahs, birthday parties, fundraisers, grand openings and the
list just goes on and on. Where
would I have a casino party? If
it's a company party or convention, these parties usually take
place in hotel banquet rooms or even at country clubs. Sometimes
companies will have them onsite. If you need to book a hotel
banquet room or a country club, you will need to book several
months in advance. Some December holiday parties held at hotels might
be booked up as early as May or earlier! When
planning a casino party, please take a look at the "Party
Planning" section of this website for space
requirements.
