To do this I taped sheets of black wrapping paper together, and then added the wording. I hired out bartenders and made a “menu” to look like a giant chalkboard. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The dealers would teach players how to play if they didn’t know how. We had 5 tables total and it filled up the space nicely. I hired a casino companyto come in with game tables and dealers. I also collected vintage whisky glasses and had candles made in them for the party. I had been collecting vintage decanters to use for water and I added those around the venue as well. I created an easy centerpiece out of birch branches and these stems from hobby lobby. I only had one table set up for people to sit at and eat, as the lodge has several different seating options with couches, chairs, and high top tables to stand at. Think chicken wings, meatballs, mac and cheese, etc. Instead I served “bar food” and I sprinkled charcuterie boards around the lodge in different areas. The party started at 7 so I didn’t serve dinner. We had around 100 guests and it was such a fun night.

So I thought I’d share a few photos with you today! I had wanted to share photos on Instagram stories during the weekend, but I just got way to busy with setting up, cooking, and decorating. This past weekend we celebrated my husband turning 50 with a big casino night at our community lodge.
