Im trying to plan a casino theme party for my boyfriend and I dont know what a resonable price for renting casino tables and dealers is? I live in southern Ca. Any suggestions on where I should go or a price range I should be looking for?

You could be flirting with legal problems. If there is actual betting, it can get tricky. If no actual money is involved, it’s a lot of expense while still being lame. How about holding his party at a casino?

i used to work part time for one of these companies. the prices can range from $500 to $5000, depending on the games and how many tables. i would suggest if it’s a small party, just have a couple of poker tables, maybe one black jack, and one roulette. that’s 4 tables, requiring 5 dealers and a games manager so $15/hr for the dealers and $25 for the manager. so that’s $100/hr. times five hours, so that’s $500. each table is about $5/hr to rent so that’s $25 more. and set up and break down expenses probably at least another $75. well, that’s $600.
if you want to talk to somebody, here’s one of the companies i worked for. sorry it’s in canada, but it should at least give you and idea, and maybe a lead.

If there are numerous casino party companies in your area then don’t expect a huge price difference by shopping around. I’d contact 2 or 3 of them with your proposal and get quotes.
Be wary of deep discount deals that seem to good to be true because they often are too good to be true.
If this is a large party then you’ll need a large venue to hold it. If you want a full blown casino party with 21 tables, craps, roulette, and slot machines then you better have a place that can hold all of that equipment. That place will also charge you rent to hold it.
