Bond…. James Bond themed events Norwich

Last weekend saw us putting on a James Bond themed event in the marquee at Drayton Old Lodge. It was a 21st Birthday party for the lovely Josephine, and what a fab evening it was! The guests were great, the food was amazing, and the venue was perfect for such an event… plenty big enough for us to put up our James Bond extras with our 8 foot Golden Guns each side of the red carpet entrance.

This is what Josephine had to say afterwards….

“Thank you again for making last night awesome, everyone has said how amazing the casino was!! x 🙂 “

Check out the pics below, and if you’d like to put on such an event give us a call on 01493 700669 or send an email to info@funcasinoevents.co.uk. We’re here to help!

What a weekend we had!

Wow what a fantastic weekend we had at the EDP Weddings show. Massive thanks to all who came to meet us, and to those of you who booked us for your special event. You won’t be disappointed!

Our bookings from the weekend were in double figures, and, when you consider we don’t usually get bookings at the actual shows (they come by email/phone later), we were more than happy. Most people booked us saying that they believed we were very professional, and that it was like they were dealing with a ‘proper’ company (and of course, they were!)

When you’re in business for yourself it’s great to hear comments like that. We pride ourselves on our professionalism, having spent a great many years in the ‘real’ casino business. When you book us you are guaranteed an authentic casino experience with highly experienced croupiers, and great looking tables (and they’re all the same colour, not a mish-mash of greens, reds, and blues etc!), and you can always rest assured that we’ll over deliver on our promises.

After the show we put on a casino evening for the staff of the Marriott Sprowston Manor Hotel in Norwich and it was awesome, but we were extremely tired by the end of play and needed 2 days to recover! (these hospitality staff are party animals!)

That’s Funny!

There were 2 fun casino companies at the show, us and one other. I actually did a couple of 3 hour gigs for the other company a year or so back, and I enjoyed it…. and it was because of that I decided I should start my own fun casino business, because with my 20+ years of real casino experience (starting in 1982 as a croupier in Yarmouth, and later working in The Bahamas, Moscow, and finishing as a casino manager in the Ukraine) I could do it better… So it was amusing to hear some of the potential brides and grooms at the show who had spoken to the other company telling me that ‘The bloke over there says he used to be your boss’ lol…. well I guess I did work for him for a few hours!

Just so you know, the 4 owners of Fun Casino Events (Mark, Peter, Michelle, & Lynne) have 80 years of casino experience between them. So if you want an authentic casino experience at your event there’s really no other choice!
