Las Vegas Theme Wedding Ideas and Tips

Ding, ding, ding! "Vegas Party Theme at a wedding? We have a winnerrrr!"

Two weeks ago, I DJ'ed a wedding reception at The Western Turnpike Golf Club in Guilderland, NY that had a "Las Vegas theme." The bride said that it was the only draw she could catch the groom to assume into having a hand in the planning. All in all, she was moral. By the slay of the night, the guests had a blast and it was a very different and memorable party for all.

Thinking of planning something similar? You don't have to reinvent the wheel. Here are some ideas that they dilapidated, as well as a few others I have seen...

The shuffling of the cards. The rolling of the dice. The spinning of a laughable roulette wheel. Aside from the distinct playing of must-have lounge lizard music like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Louis Prima and other Italian American oldies, decor will be your key. The visual plays an great role portion in getting over the theme and in this case, you don't have to exercise a lot to acquire that sweet cheesy Vegas feel.

If you really want to sell the thought to your guests, bewitch a bunch of playing cards and poker chips from the dollar store. Then, go nuts. At this reception, they scattered the loose cards and chips everywhere around table centerpieces, by the guest book, on the gift table and on handsome powerful any flat surface available. A special colored poker chip can also be taped underneath one chair at each table to signify who gets to bring home whatever casino-related centerpiece you can dream up.

As far as clothing is concerned, murky felt gangster hats and jeweled tiaras are also a must to sustain in hand! Maybe even acquire a Money Boa for the bride. Another plan is to set a bunch of cheap murky sunglasses on the tables. Because a number of people will be wearing tuxedos, a lot of the pictures will ruin up having that monkey suit and sun glasses combination that The Rat Pack made eminent.

Another large understanding this group had was to get massive eight-foot cardboard cut-outs of playing card suits and set aside them in the corners of the room. The diamonds and clubs and spades were all made out of painted cardboard with a dismal share in the assist of each to encourage them stand. The heart was honest advance the head table. Each fixture was outlined and finished in blooming white Christmas lights.

For invitations that sob Las Vegas, place the precise invitation to a playing deck of cards, poker chips, or dice. If you are really creative, a custom caricature, kind of like the walls at Delmonico's Steakhouse on Central Ave might be fun. Portrait the bride and groom as casino dealers or mafia, or a lounge singer and a showgirl. The couple could also be the King of Diamonds or the Queen of Spades!

This party opted for a massive candy table. Have you ever seen these? The colors really got over the feel of the party and there were loads of packets of bogus bills and dice beads mixed throughout to withhold them in the Vegas mindset! During the dancing, it was droll to scrutinize guests throwing the money around and "compose it rain in the club" to various hip hop songs later in the night.

The decorations really turned the hall into the Vegas strip! Aside from the playing card suits, they hung slot machine backdrops and a immense Las Welcome to Vegas designate on the wall.

For Vegas themed favors, you can collect custom printed poker chips, or manufacture dice out of card stock and occupy them with goodies.

Last but not least, someone had secured two ample appliance boxes and wrapped them in white paper, then painted shaded dots on them. They created a enormous pair of dice that sat off to the true of my DJ state up. It was mammoth!

Have fun with it and don't be fearful to be different!
