If the aim of the event is to educate people then the entertainment is not the key element of the event. You would do better to use some light form of entertainment during the break to help attendees unwind and rel

Step 1 – Establish a BudgetCasino Party Budgets range from $25. to $100. per person, depending on location, food and beverage, and décor.  Food will often comprise 40% of the budget, with 40% allocated to the Casino Vendor, and the additional 20% allocated to facility rental, entertainment, prizes, and decorations.  These amounts will vary depending on your organization’s preferences.Step 2 - Vendor SelectionThis first step is critical to the success of your event.  You want to make sure your casino party vendor carries professional looking equipment and not just table toppers (laydowns that sit on top of a banquet table).  In addition, the vendor should have at least 8 – 10 years experience and should own their equipment.  Many agencies and event companies misrepresent the fact that they own their equipment, when they just subcontract to a casino rental company.  Some agencies have been known to double the rental fee when they subcontract.  There are many newcomers to the industry that just imitate their competitors, and don’t have the experience to run a proper event.  Also, a qualified vendor will be able to give advice on table and prize selection.  Some vendors will give a few  choices in renting the equipment, such as full service (providing everything, including the dealers), limited service (providing the tables and a Pit Boss, and they would train your volunteer dealers), and table rental only.Step 3 – Date & Time SelectionThe date of your event may be determined on the facility and vendor availability.  Often this step is planned months in advance, especially if it’s a popular time of the year (such as the first two weeks in December).  Fundraising event planners should check the local  social calendar, to see that there are no major conflicts.  Most casino parties will last for about four hours, with about 3 hours of actual gambling time and the rest for food serving, cashing out at the end of the night, and prize giveaways.Step 4 - Location SelectionThe location you select should be easily accessible to your attendees.  The facility should also be able to accommodate the casino tables, food and beverage, entertainment and your attendees comfortably.  Some facilities, such as hotels, will not allow you to bring in outside food vendors.Step 5 - Table SelectionThe number of tables you select should be based on the number of attendees expected.  Most casino planners expect 75% of guests playing at any given time.  The other 25% will be either watching, eating, enjoying the entertainment, or schmoozing.  Your casino vendor will be able to make a recommendation on the types of tables needed for your sized event.Step 6 - Theme SelectionWhile it’s not necessary to have a theme, it does create excitement about your event.Here are some of the most popular casino themes:Mardi Gras ThemeRiverboat Gambler ThemeDisco Party ThemeWild Wild West Theme1920’s Speakeasy ThemeCaribbean ThemeArabian Nights ThemeCamelot Party ThemeHollywood Stars ThemeSci-Fi Party ThemeRoman ThemeSouthern Plantation ThemeCasablanca Party ThemeWhen you’ve decided on the theme for your casino party it’s time to get creative.  Invitations, decorations, costumes, food, party favors, and entertainment should all fit the theme chosen.  Even the play money handed out to guests should match the theme of your event.Step 7 - Food/Beverage SelectionMost often, the food at casino parties is served buffet style.  Some events will have a sit-down dinner, and then move to the casino party area.  Space is often a consideration when planning the food and beverage selections.  You need to plan for lines (sometimes long) at the buffet and bars.  The bar may be either an open or a cash bar.  Many events will supply one or two drink tickets to all attendees, and then have them pay for any additional drinks.  Often, the casino vendor will be able to recommend a good caterer, if needed.Step 8 – EntertainmentThe most popular entertainers at casino parties include DJ’s, Magicians, Fortune Tellers, and Caricature Artists.  A DJ, while not necessary, will be able to make any necessary announcements.  Magicians will often be able to perform strolling magic, and demonstrate gambling sleights.  Fortune Tellers are always a popular choice of entertainment.  The Caricature Artist will provide a keepsake for your attendees.Step 9 - Decorations/Party Favors/InvitationA theme makes it easy to choose all of your decorations, party favors and invitations.  A sit-down dinner will often have themed centerpieces, as will cocktail tables.  Some events will have red, black and white balloon trees scattered about.  Party stores will often carry a selection of these items.Step 10 - Prizes/GiveawaysThe number of prizes to be given away is often based on the number of attendees, in addition to the budget supplied.  Often, many organizations may have donated prizes from their vendors or members.  Many of your attendees will be very competitive at the gambling tables, competing for the best prizes.  A nice Grand Prize will attract more attendees to your event.  There are two ways that prizes are given away at casino parties – raffles and auctions.  With the raffle method, typically, attendees are given one raffle ticket for a certain amount (such as $20,000.) in either chips or play money held by the gambler. For example, if a gambler has $100,000 in chips at the end of the night, they would receive 5 raffle tickets with the example above.  The auction method would have the dealers add up the total amount won by each gambler, and then an auctioneer would then begin to “sell” the prizes.
