A casino or Vegas wedding theme is a popular choice with many couples & one which calls for some fun wedding favors.
Here are a few ideas for some Vegas casino style wedding favors :
Gambling chips : many favor stores provide versions of poker or gambling chips. They often come in a range of colors & can be personalized with your names & wedding date, creating your own casino in the process !
You will also find bookmarks & key rings with gambling chips & even candle holders.
Playing cards : a deck of cards on its own may not seem like much of a gift, so look for decks that can be personalized or for unusual packs of cards, perhaps with printed photographs on the back or one’s which come in unusual packets.
Also look for card bookmarks & key chains, bottle stoppers, coasters, fridge magnets & candle holders.
However, I will say that a pack of cards could keep your guests occupied during any lulls in the entertainment at the wedding reception!
Dice : look for sets of dice, usually in twos, & which may be personalized. You will also find dice printed favor boxes in which you could put chocolate gambling chips or chocolate dice!
Check out dice themed bottle stoppers, bookmarks, keepsake boxes, lollipops & key chains.
Chocolates: you will find casino themed chocolates in the shape of dice, chips, cards & casino printed wrappers for bars & candies.
Slot Machines : why not give your guests a candy slot machine & let them gamble their wedding favors out !
Other favor ideas include : dollar sign wine pourer/stopper, Las Vegas mint tins, pencils, place card holders, matchbooks, Lucky 7 personalized boxes, tote bags. Dice cuff links, wine glass charms, mini roulette key chain, shot glasses & candles.
Why not add to your casino theme with a roulette wheel or poker table at the reception to entertain your guests, hire a James Bond look – alike to mingle with your guests & have their photographs taken with him. Serve up Martini’s as your wedding cocktail – shaken not stirred !

If you are a person who has an ample interest in casino and are about to try your luck at any casino table, you will require a Casino Guide in order to comprehend the language that is accepted round the table. This language is accepted throughout the world in almost all casinos. Knowing these language will not only increase your confidence but will also prove you as a pro even though you are a first time visitor of casino table. Without knowing these certain terms you will never be able to know that the amount of money that you are investing in the game is termed as Bankroll among the casino goers.
A good casino guide is really important for the first time casino goers. The new casino players also can take the guide of these guides as knowing the terms will only make them mature. The next time you hear the word Bluff in the Poker table do not get confused for that is to term a player who is trying to drive the other players out of the game worthlessly.
Call the card you remove from the deck before dealing a card in the community cards a Burn Card. Never get frustrated if you are winning Comps during your initial visits to casinos as this means a complementary gift that is delivered to the players. You can also receive comp points in case you are willing to play more on the casino.
The terms mentioned in the casino table forms a different language, a very own language of the casino maniacs. In order to prove you as good as well as practiced casino goers, only winning luck is not enough. It is all fun and you should try to look smarter as you play.
A casino guide of the terms will help you a lot. It is better for you to invest in even money as that signifies a bet that promises to pay you back the same money you gamble. The Jack, the Queen and the King are called as Face Cards in the deck of cards. In old casinos you may meet a High Roller. A High Roller is a player who wins as well as loses big though betting a bit. Do not call the money you wager an investment but a Bankroll for that is the proper term for it.
Though there are different terms applicable to different games of casino, a casino guide is always a good help. It is always useful that you refer a glossary meant for casino games whether you go playing poker or try your luck through slot machines. Being a favorite game of gambling throughout the world, almost equal terms are used in all casinos in every corners of the world. In this way, knowing the terms properly, you can communicate with persons representing all the countries through the casino table.
Never forget to refer a casino guide before trying your hand at the casino table for winning the game requires knowing a certain rules as well as strategies. It is the terms as well as strategies that will make you a practiced hand in casino in due course of time.
