Christmas and New Year. Calling all Party Organisers

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Christmas and New Year Party Organisers

As the Christmas and New Year parties  approach us, calling all party organisers – please take note. Here at Aces Fun Casinos, we are busy taking bookings for Christmas and New Year casino parties.   Aces  has been entertaining business employees for the festive season since 2020. Before long office parties in Bristol, Taunton, Swindon, Bath, and surrounding locations across Somerset and the South West will be in full swing.

Party Ideas

Trying to think of party themes or ideas for your party can be testing but if you decide upon a casino themed event all the organising will be done for you by us.  We have a wide range of entertaining ideas that guarantees to keep your clients, guests, and employees entertained throughout the whole evening. Socializing, conversation, music food, and beverages combined with our casino tables is the perfect combination.

Private Party Entertainment or Surprise Business Fun

Our entertainments team in Weston super Mare recently organised a private party for a business with a small number of employees.  They booked our Party Special Package. This includes the three most popular casino games – roulette, blackjack and poker. Staffed by professional croupiers plus a casino manager to oversee the action.  Our clients first went for a meal at a top restaurant in Bristol and then came back to their place of work . To their surprise, they saw that the workplace had evolved into a CASINO! Aces Fun entertainment team had set up the party-themed tables. Much fun and excitement was to follow. After a very exciting couple of hours, the business owner said they had the best Christmas Party in years.

Looking For A Party with Something Different

Our entertainment is always different, our staff is trained to such high standards and professional throughout. Your day or night time entertainment is set to your personal requirement. Themed or staged, we ensure you always get the best value for money. A home dinner party with Aces  always goes down as a great surprise for your guests.  You may like the idea of a Vegas Night or 007 Bond Night – both go so well with our casino tables. Go the whole hogg and have the guests in fancy dress – perhaps come as your favourite ‘Bond’ character. A Vegas night certainly wouldn’t be ‘Vegas’ without a casino. Why not ask guests to use their imagination and dress accordingly. roulette-table-hire-somerset

Fundraising Parties

Do you know someone that’s running the London Marathon or taking on a challenge and need to fund raise for a charity or Organisation? Our fundraising parties are perfect for these situations. With so many years of experience we can steer you into the very best ways of raising money. We have for example our unique pre-event fundraiser that is aimed at those that won’t be there on the night but could still have a bet.

Party Organisers

Let us take the stress out of your workload. Having to arrange your works party can be a daunting prospect. One thing I would like to stress is the need to book early. The weekend nights in December are especially busy. Apart from the repeat bookings we have (and after so many years there are quite a few of them), Fridays and Saturdays start getting booked up in January. Another word of advice, let us guide you through the booking process.  It’s not that difficult but table/guest ratio and timings are important to get right.

Last word…

We are an honest, family business. If you ask our advice we’ll give you an honest answer. We do not try to oversell our product. We want your party to be a roaring success – that way you’ll most probably ask us back. That’s why over 70% of our bookings are repeat business. It’s something we are very proud of. We’ll help you organise your party – just give us a call – 01934 420126 or Contact.

We’re here waiting for your call!

Fun Casino Chips for Roulette and Blackjack Table Hire

People who have never been to an event with a fun casino often ask me – ‘where’s the fun element as it’s not real money?’

Strangely enough for people both sides of the table, the fact that no real money is changing hands doesn’t seem to make a scoobie’s worth of difference! Chips are chips – and when players get the feel of them – and our chips are the best quality around – they love them. Also – there’s a prize for the evening’s winner!

Christmas Party Ideas and Corporate Entertainment

If you’re wondering what to add to your party to make it extra special, a fun casino is a sure winner. If it’s done well, they’ll be talking about it for months to come.

Every Fun Casino Night Includes Personalised Fun Money!

One of our recent events – a lovely birthday party for a lovely woman (arranged by her lovely husband) was a good example. Terry (the husband) and also a professional photographer immortalised the night with a terrific you tube clip.

Here’s what Terry was kind enough to say about our casino entertainment:

I also wanted to say thank you again to you and your team for adding such an “Ace Fun” component to the evening in such a personable but professional way. I’m convinced that there will be people asking me for recommendations and I would be only too happy to provide one.
Best wishes, Terry

Summer Balls and Student Prom Night Planning 2018

/in , , , , /by

Planning A Summer Ball or Prom Night

Have you been thrown in at the deep end and need a little help with planning a Summer Ball or Student Prom Night? Our handy 10 point guide takes you through some of the planning processes and hopefully guide will go some way to helping you organise, advertise, fund and run an excellent event.

1. The Team – The most important factor in making your Ball go well and the organisation go smoothly is to choose a team that can work well together. Assign roles and open up an email trail with your selected members, ensure everyone is on board with the different responsibililities and allow people to have confidence to handle big things such as budget and venue choice.

2. The Theme – Want to make your event fun, distinctive and memorable? Aces Fun Casinos hold stock of Las Vegas themed banners which ensure the casino area stands out. We also offer James Bond 007 Casino Royale themed fun casino nights.

3. The Money – Budgeting is never easy, especially when you’ve no idea how much anything costs. Agree on a budget range, with a ceiling level and break it down into sections. Have confidence when asking for prices, ask for added value and have a list of pre prepared questions for the venue, or catering for example.

4. The Venue – Start by figuring out the attendance numbers and Google search for venues with this capacity. Ask about fire regulations and the times the venue will be available on the night/during the day so you can agree timeslots for the entertainment, catering and any electrical equipment that needs to be set up.

5. The Food – Often the venue will offer food as part of the package, other times external catering companies will need to be researched. For outside occasions whereby a marquee is required you can consider a Hog Roast, or even a BBQ setup. For inside events you’ll need to decide whether a hot sit down meal is viable as opposed to a finger buffet.

6. The Entertainment – From live music, to DJ’s to a Fun Casino – there’s so many choice options. Click here to send a message via our contact form or call FREE on 0800 107 7001 to reserve your Summer Ball date with us.

7. The Guests – How are you inviting people and how will you track attendance figures? Google Drive offers online Cloud documents and spreadsheets that can be instantly shared between several people.

8. The Tickets – Are you having tickets printed? Do you have artwork ready or do you need a talented logo designer to do this for you and organise printing all at once? We work with UK Web Promotions in Somerset and are happy to recommend their services.

9. The Night – Well done you made it! Finally the date had arrived. If the event is ticketed you’ll need to organise people to meet and greet on the door and collect tickets and to deter unwanted gatecrashers.

10. The Checklist and Legalities:

  •     The Venue (check security, opening/closing times, food, table decorations and settings, theming)
  •     Additional items for the venue for example if you’re bringing your own wine, table decorations, prizes, music etc. Is there a sound sytem?
  •     The Ticket Check (printing, distributed, not oversold, capacity versus attendance)
  •     Entertainment at the venue (Fun Casino tables, Roulette, Blackjack – the DJ or live music, photographers etc. when all are arriving, leaving, performing, whether you have include them in the buffet or food numbers)
  •     Transport to and from the venue – local taxi companies or minibus hire?
  •     Risk assessments (if required) for fire exits and insurance on the day

Casino wins caught on camera

/in , , , , /by

Want to see some casino wins caught on camera? Recklessness and guesswork wins at one form of betting or another happen every day. But rather like lists of wonderful pictures where the photographer caught a particular image at the perfect moment, those casino wins are so much cooler when they’re caught on camera. Here’s 9 crazy videos for you to enjoy!

1. The crazy boy from Brazil

Now, if you were set on making 3.5 Million Dollars playing roulette, the ‘safest’ approach may be to have a series of big bets on Red/Black, Odd/Even or 1-18/19-37 and slowly get to that figure across multiple spins.

But this loud-shirted, red wine-drinking Brazilian marches to the beat of a different drum. He sticks 100k on one number and hopes for the best. Some people have all the luck…

2. Ash wins the cash

This one’s a YouTube classic. If you’re going to sell everything you own, bunch it up with your life savings and head to a Casino to put 136,000 US Dollars on the spin of one roulette wheel…you might as well make a TV show out of it.

That’s exactly what Englishman Ashley Revell did. His poor wife looks on as he picks red, knowing that one spin can bankrupt them in an instant. I think we’re all pretty glad it came up red.

3. The boys who trumped Trump

At first glance, there’s nothing particularly remarkable about four middle-aged guys driving to Atlantic City, each contributing 2,500 US dollars to a pot and putting it all on red.

A 10,000 dollar win in an Atlantic City Casino is a daily occurrence. But get to 1.44 minutes in the video and you’ll see who the Casino belongs to. Yes, one Donald J. Trump. Purely for the fact they took 10k of Trump’s own money, this clip deserves to be here.

4. Doing the splits at the Blackjack table

In truth this one shouldn’t really be on a list of biggest casino wins. Instead it should be Number 1 for gutsiest/most stupid play ever seen on a Blackjack table, depending on your perspective.

The Blackjack purist would shudder at the site of this hand, pinpointing every low-percentage move this guy makes. But hey, all’s well that ends well.

5. Slots guy loses the plot live on the web

Part of the fun of any type of gambling is that feeling of joy when you know you’re on a good run. And that’s certainly the case when you’ve activated a bonus feature on a slot, everything has fallen into place and the big wins just keep on coming.

For most of us that happens without any sort of crowd present to witness us going a little over-the-top in our celebrations. But if you’re this ‘Scandi’, who plays slots in front of a live web audience following his every spin with baited breath, a hot run on Jack and the Beanstalk free spins is enjoyed as much by his fans as it is by himself. And boy did he enjoy it

6. He came, he sat, he conquered

The usual way of playing Blackjack in a Casino is to sit down, make yourself comfortable, grab a drink, play a small share of your chips on your first hand and see what the mood at the table is. Is the table ‘hot’? Or is the Dealer pulling out all the stops?

Alternatively, you can play your full bank on one hand, win and get the hell out of Dodge. Which is what he did

7. Racing commentator turns excited gambler

In Europe, sports commentators are a somewhat boring lot. They put any bias to the one side and just talk you through the action in a fair and impartial way.

But not in the US.

This particular horseracing commentator was pretty sweet on huge outsider Jacamo in the Kentucky Derby, methodically listing his reasons for liking his chances. There was less method involved as Jacamo romps home and he goes beserk in the studio.

8. US Marine leaves Bellagio casino all at sea

When you fail to impress your friends at something, your actions are normally met with the words ‘don’t give up the day job’.

But giving up his day job may have been precisely what this US Marine was about to do next after winning 2.8 million US Dollars playing the aptly-named slot ‘The Money Vault.’

Good on him and bonus points for his very understated ‘English-style’ celebrations. Which is more than you can say for the foul-mouthed and somewhat annoying pals of his.

9. Blood pressure levels through the roof in Vegas

Talk about opposites attract. Husband goes ballistic at a Jackpot win in a Vegas Casino, punching the air, waving his arms and shouting ‘Go baby, go’ no fewer than 28 times (approximately).

His wife meanwhile remains in her chair, calm, thoughtful and quiet, like she was watching Oprah.

It’s probably a good thing the slot stopped paying out when it did because we’re not sure this guy’s heart could have taken much more.

Fancy a safe bet with some fun money? Hire Aces Fun Casinos for your next event for a fun filled evening full of giggles and a prize for the number 1 winner!

Fun Casino, Fun Job

Fun Casinos and Job Satisfaction

As told by June Howley, Business Owner of Aces Fun Casinos.

What is it, after twenty years of working in fun casinos – 16 of those with my own business – keeps me enjoying my work?

As a provider of fun casinos I have been asked to attend thousands of different events. These venues range from castles to chip shops, stately homes to narrow boats. We’ve worked on farms, in festivals, race courses and tv studios. We’ve worked in people’s kitchens and even their bedrooms when space was at a premium.

We’ve driven to the middle of nowhere, carted our gear across fields and gardens. We’ve climbed through French windows, slithered through blizzards and held our breath driving through flash floods. Why?

No one stands to lose their income over the turn of a card or the spin of the wheel.

Speaking as someone who spent many years in the gaming industry, working in a variety of casinos in the UK and abroad I can say in all honesty that, apart from the excitement of travelling to new countries and all that entails, I find the fun casinos that I do are far more enjoyable.

Communication – call it banter.

I am able to engage with my players, tell them a yarn perhaps, teach them a little strategy or just have a bit of banter going alongside the game. How very different from the mostly silent and tense games in the gambling halls of the world, where players show no emotion whatsoever or worse, blaming the croupier for their losses.

Fun Casino Event Entertainment Bristol Somerset Swindon Bath Taunton South Wales West

Fun Casinos are a light-hearted form of entertainment and really – not just for the player. Most of the croupiers that work in my fun casinos have had many years experience working in the gaming industry. They leave for a variety of reasons but a part of them still miss the GAMES as did I. So, after years of meeting all sorts of different people, driving to different places, celebrating different occasions– birthdays, anniversaries, fund raisers, corporate entertainment, weddings – helping to make an event the best it can be and seeing the enjoyment on people’s faces – that’s what gives me job satisfaction. That’s what keeps me doing what I do and enjoying it while I’m doing it.
