A Casino Themed Jack and Jill

sparks_melissa

My parents have decided to throw me and my finance a casino themed jack and jill party and have enlisted in us, and the wedding party members for help.

Just wondering if anyone could provide any advice as to the best way to organize this type of party. Or, if anyone has ever been to this type of party, what was it like?

We are planning on using a local party company to rent some poker and blackjack tables.

Should we be using fake money? or use real money, such as loose change to organize the party?

Thanks for the help ladies!

Hey! I did a casino party for my bachelorette party. It was great. We had two dealers (two sweet 70-year-old gentlemen) come and teach us ladies how to gamble - blackjack and roulette. They brought the chips and everyone started with $500 in chips. Every 30 minutes, whoever had the most chips at each table won a prize (frames, jewelry, perfumes...). We had such a great time, and one of the dealers ended up being in Vegas the week of our wedding and came to our ceremony, strip tour, and reception!!!

As far as payment, all the ladies chipped in $10-15 to pay for the tables/dealers and we also had a tip cup at each table.
