Funny Accents For A Little Fun At A Casino Party

Hosting a casino themed party doesn't have to be 100% about the casino and gambling. Sometimes it's fun to have a few accents that are sorta related to the casino night but will give people a chuckle. Here are a few ideas that are a fun way to surprise your guests and maybe even make them chuckle.

1) Flashing red ice-cubes. You can buy these flashing ice-cubes and have them behind your bar at the party. Randomly throughout the night you can tell your bartender to put them in people's drinks. This will definitely surprise them if they've never seen such a thing!

2) Dancing Elvis Scene Setter. Elvis is the king and was the king of Vegas for years. If you're holding a Las Vegas themed party having an Elvis at the party is a must!

3) Toilet Paper Money Roll - This is a normal roll of toilet paper created with fake $1 bills. This is a great thing to put in your bathroom for people to get a good laugh by themselves!

Hopefully some of these ideas will spur you to add a few accents to your party.

Casino Equipment Rentals and Party Providers Directory

Here is a quick site update that I think is needed for this site and the internet in general. I'm in the process of creating a casino party directory. I'm going to list all the equipment rentals, party providers, dealers available and other casino party providers in one place on the site. The goal is that if you're organizing a casino party and need dealers or party supplies you can use the directory to find the information quickly. As an example: if you live in California and need a craps table for the evening you'll be able to enter you city and state and find all the equipment rental places available around your city in California.

If you're a merchant reading this and want to get added to the directory I will need the details list below. If you'd like to add a description of your service to your directory listing the cost is a one time $5 fee. The $5 will also create a 'do follow' hyperlink to your website. This is a nominal fee to help recoup the work that I'm putting into the directory. I'm still working on getting my payment system in place so the charge is waived until July 1st, 2009.

Please send me these details about your site.

One of the questions we often get asked when people are considering hosting a casino themed parties is, Are they expensive? Or How much is this going to cost me?

Are you getting volunteer dealers? etc...

Casino Night Party - Fake Money

One of the keys to any casino night party is the money or chips. You will need a combination of paper money and poker chips depending on which games you will have at the party. However, the one thing you will want to ensure is that you have money and obviously, you don't want to use real money for logistical and legal reasons. However, it's great to have money that looks and feels like real money. The best source that we've found is U.S. toy fake money found here.

U.S. Toy fake money is great as it's not that expensive as you get 1000 sheets of fake money per order. It also comes in denominations of 1, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100,$500, $1000.

Another option is the fake casino cash which only includes 100 pieces at a lower cost. The reviews on this cash says it looks and feels too large which may or may not be an option depending on how 'exact' you'd like your party to be. Check it out here.

One of the best ways to run the party is to give each person who comes to the party a set amount of money. Then at the end of the night see who has the most money! Or you can also have 'prizes' where people can 'bet' on each item.
