or just a night of fun with your intimate friends. You can make it a big event, or just a small one, but no matter how large it is guaranteed to make you a big winner!You can start out with round invitations where an image of a roulette wheel is the cover. Use a grommet to attach the wheel to the back part of the invitation so the wheel (face of the card) will slide to reveal the invitation itself.
For larger events or fundraisers, you can charge admissions. This will offset the cost of prizes. Offer drink tickets at the door for favors, and guests can turn in chips they have won in exchange for money when purchasing drinks.
Decorations can be elaborate – from a playing card arch to poles painted to look large cardboard poker chips or dice. Tables can be covered with green cloth and a combination of red, black, white, yellow and blue plates to represent poker chips. Place card holders with Las Vegas signs (right) will seat the guests. Poker chip candle holders can be placed at each table for additional fun lighting, and personalized poker chips or card decks with the name of the event can be placed at each setting. Entertainment, of course, will be cards, dice tables, black jack and roulette wheels. You could check around to see where you can rent tables and roulette wheels for these events in your area. Winners will receive poker chips (personalized for the event) that they can cash in for prizes (a nice gift idea is a poker set ).
It’s hard to walk away without a smile, even if you’re losing at the tables, with one of these parties.
