Vegas Themed Party

mandysmear · July 2010

My sister is turning 30 this year. I want to throw a big surprise party. Originally she was going to go to Vegas, but then her and her BF decided to build a house (across the street from us!!!!!), so now she figures it wouldn't be the most responsible thing to do.

I want to do a Vegas theme. I'm thinking a couple poker tables, renting a blackjack table... some fun money. Any other ideas?

PROSTITUTES!

I'm kidding.

Roulette?

Hookers and blow. How could I forget about the hookers and blow? I can have movies playing in the background like "Leaving Las Vegas, Casino, The Hangover".

I love the movie idea. OH! You need to do SOMETHING Elvis related. Can Mike dress up as Elvis??

Elvis! An Elvis impersonator would be awesome, but even a life-size cutout of The King would be cool.

also: Liberace, Rat Pack, Don Rickles

Oh dear God. I'm imagining Mike as Elvis. That's hilarious!

Elvis. Yes. I am sure I can find posters. Life size cut out would be the bomb.

A lot of Sinatra and the rat pack music in the background.

pinks feathers, bright lights, martini glasses, mardi gras beads...

Mandy, a life size cut out of Elvis can have uses outside this party, should you be able to find one. We got my dad a life size cut out of John Wayne one year for Father's Day. My brother started sticking it in places where it would scare you, for a good joke. Like right outside the bathroom door when you get out of the shower. Or right outside your bedroom door when you wake up in the morning. My brother was able to sneak it into the extra bedroom where FI was sleeping when we were at my parents last. Hilarity.

How about a Roulette table?

You have to have shrimp cocktail on your buffet (you have to have a buffet).

Oooh great ideas, thanks ladies. Yes, buffet is a must! I have a GF who has a "welcome to las vegas" sign. So, that's great. I have another friend with a poker table. This is going to be fun!
