How A Casino Party Works
The term "Casino Party" is used to describe an event where people come together to play games commonly found in the casinos of Las Vegas, Reno, Atlantic City, and Monte Carlo, but do not actually wager money or things of value.
A casino party may be a private celebration, held by a company, group, individuals, or it may be held as a fund raising activity for a non-profit organization. In either event, guest arrive to find a variety of casino games available for their amusement. Guests are usually given a fixed amount of script, play money, or chips. Guests then "wager" on their favorite games like blackjack, craps, and roulette, etc...... Then test their luck and skill trying to outplay their colleagues during the course of the evening.
At the end of the evening, the guests turn in their chips and a tally is taken. The person or persons with the largest "winnings" for the evening, are often awarded non cash prizes. In addition, auctions or raffles may be held to award the prizes.
Prizes can be as elaborate as a new car, a trip to Las Vegas, or a weekend getaway. They can also be as simple as a dinner certificate, an award plaque, or a gag gift.

Why a casino party?
Some of the key elements of a successful party are excitement, enthusiasm and interaction.
At a casino party it happens..... it's there........
The atmosphere of Las Vegas generates the excitement. Imagine this........ The announcement has just been made that the tables are now open for play. People have been waiting to get to the tables and try their luck.
Wagers are made and the competition has begun. At the craps table, cheering rumbles throughout the room as the dice are thrown. Come on seven/eleven the shooter yells. The dealer calls out "seven a front line winner" Everyone is now shouting "do it again!, do it again!" Moving to the blackjack table you hear the players urging the dealer to bust as he draws to 16, then the collective grown as he draws a 5 to make 21. These scenarios typify the excitement and action throughout the "casino".
How could a party like this be anything but successful?

The Legal Aspects
The most commonly asked question when people hear about a casino party is, "IS THIS LEGAL?"
The answer is "YES"
What makes it legal is that in spite of the appearance of a casino, there is no actual gambling going on. Its all fun & games. That's because only play money is used - - usually in the form of chips, that have no real monetary value. Chips are just a system of keeping "points" so that you know who the big winners were at the end of the event. There are no losers.

Company & Corporate Parties

A casino theme party is a unique way to tell your valued employees, guests and / or clients how much they are appreciated. A company may even consider awarding additional playing points (chips) based on certain company goals.

In the following we have listed a number of suggested steps simplifying the planning schedule for a successful party. However, depending on the size and complexity of the party and the time that you may have to devote towards the program planning, it may be advisable to contact a professional event coordinating service.
1. Number of Guests:

The number of guests is a primary key, affecting location, dinner planning, and entertainment accommodations. Accurately determining this number can not only help to maximize the success but also to minimize the cost.
2. Date & Time:
"SCHEDULE YOUR DATE WISELY"..
Avoid conflicts with other major events that would diminish your guest roster. However, keep in mind, with large groups, it's nearly impossible to have all agree, you will find that all dates conflict with something, don't expect to find that one "perfect" date. Note that Friday's and Saturday's are usually the best day's and particularly successful for fund raisers. However, weekday parties are usually easer to book on short notice, and could be less costly. Corporate and private event planners should be aware that December is a very busy month, most weekends are booked early in the year, so plan well ahead for your December parties. We know it's not always possible to plan that far in advance. If this is the case, and you only have a few day's to put your party together, call us, we may still be able to help.

The location can vary widely, from the grand ballroom at one of the finest hotels to a private home. In choosing your location some of the keys are:
Accessibility - keep in mind winter conditions & parking availability.
Facility - Large enough to accommodate your party and activities comfortably.
Ambiance - If it's a black tie affair, or western wear, you want the location to compliment the theme.
Budget - Early planning, weekday scheduling, or outlying locations may help moderate costs.
4. Decor & Theme:
For a casino theme party, the gaming tables basically provide the decor. Additional decorations such as banners, large playing cards for the wall, and other decorations can be added. Some hosts may want their guests to dress in a specific theme such as the roaring 20's or western gunslingers. Our dealers can also participate in the theme.
5. Dinner & Snack's:
When entertaining guest for 3 or 4 hours it is essential to offer some form of food, refreshments, and drinks. This can range from a sit down or banquet style dinner to finger food or snack's.

A casino night is not only entertaining...... it's exciting!
Leave the entertainment to Casino Parties of Utah, Inc.! We will confer with you to find the right type of games along with the optimum number of each. We want to see full action on each and every table.
7. Awards & Prizes:
Prizes can be as elaborate as a new car, a trip to Las Vegas, or a weekend getaway. They can also be as simple as a dinner certificate, an award plaque, or a gag gift. It's not necessarily the value of the gift, but the thrill of winning that people enjoy.
Awarding of the prizes should take place towards the end of the evening, and last only 20 to 40 minutes. Keep a fast moving pace to the end.
Fund Raising Tips:
There are many local merchants that may be more than willing to assist in sponsoring your event, either in sponsorship of a gaming table, or prize donations. Gaming table sponsorship recognition could be indicated by placing a placard at the table. Prize sponsorship could be recognized by making an announcement as the prize is awarded. In either case you should include all sponsors in any printed materials.
