Casino Party in Huntsville? 10 Tips!

Casino Party in Huntsville | 10 Tips For A Successful Event

Casino Party in Huntsville
Are you planning on hosting a casino party in Huntsville? If so, this blog will offer ten great tips to help you host a fantastic event! Each one is essential when planning a casino party in Huntsville.

1. Location, Location, Location!
Choosing the right venue is about the ease of accessibility to your guests and the logistical spacing needed for a casino party in Huntsville. While you want to be in your general neighborhood or close by, you also need to know that the casino party games will require about 100 square feet per gaming table, if not more! Be sure when shopping for the perfect venue to allow spacing for the gaming tables necessary for your party!

2. Date
If you’re having a casino party in Alabama, only a true Alabamian truly understands the state’s calendar: Football! When selecting a date to book a venue, check the schedule for Alabama & Auburn football and the local calendar for events like the Rocket City Trash Pandas games, major concerts, or tech meetups to avoid overlapping with their events. Huntsville is an active city, and guests will thank you for not making them choose which event to pick and not dealing with event-related traffic!

3. Time
As grandma used to say, ‘house guests and fish stink after three days,’ and casino parties that go beyond three hours do too. You want to get the most out of your party, but don’t assume it’s a wedding and should be an all-day affair. The best casino parties in Huntsville that we’ve hosted have been 3 hours max. Plan a timeline similar to this one; it works perfectly!

6:00 to 7:00 – Cocktails
Dinner/Buffet/Speakers 6:30 to 7:15
Casino Games 7:15 to 10:15

Remember: A hungry stomach will always come first!

4. Casino Party Plans
Typically, people come to us with a casino party theme in mind. Hosting a casino party in Huntsville offers so many beautiful venues that are perfect for a James Bond, Gatsby, or Viva Las Vegas-themed event! While these casino party themes are popular, choosing the location is the essential first step in making it all come together! Here are a few of our favorite venues for a casino party in Huntsville!

After you decide on your casino party theme, it’s time to do a dynamic invitation that excites your guests! We love the Vegas-styled postcard printed or digital, or maybe a casino chip with all the details delivered to your team! The casino is intriguing, and the invite should be too. If you need to be more creative, find someone on Etsy or Fiver to help you!

This point is so important that we wrote a blog on it – ‘The tables you need!’ It’s about creating that fun and exciting environment while also choosing the perfect casino games for your guests. Ease of play and the ability to learn a new casino game vary.
