Thank you for making my husband's birthday such a fun and memorable event. Everyone had a great time and each dealer did a FANTASTIC JOB teaching our guests about the rules of each game. They were especially good with my kids, including them as much as possible and ensured they had fun!!
I'll definitely recommend your company to others!

After a two year hiatus due to Covid, Genesee County CASA for Children was once again able to hold their fundraiser, CASAblanca, with the help of Upstate Vegas Events. These people are the best, easy to work with, professional and reliable. Numerous guests without gambling experience commented on how comfortable they felt at the various gaming tables. The dealers were patient, polite and encouraging as they nicely explained the rules for their particular game. It’s easy to plan a fundraiser with such a great business!

A Quick "Thank You"

I wanted to send a quick "thank You" for such a successful event last Thursday. Our clients and advisors "RAVED" about the casino that Upstate Vegas provided at our Canal View Financial Advisors Client Appreciation Event at Cobblestone Creek Country Club. The dealers all arrived on time, knew exactly which table they were assigned to and were polite and professional all evening. Communication over the phone and payment at the event were quick and easy. Thank you for your EXECPTIONAL SERVICE!!

What can I possibly say but thank you for managing the casino gaming for such an amazing event at The Wilder Room, February 11th. You exceeded expectations and the guests were raving the moment they walked in the door!

It was wonderful to work with Upstate Vegas Events. Your professionalism and easy-going nature provided me with the confidence I made the right choice in gaming vendors for this high-profile important event.

I look forward to working with you again!

I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you for a wonderful event at the 2020 Moog Mid-Winter Bash.

Everyone enjoyed the addition of the gaming room. I didn’t hear one complaint – which is a miracle in and of itself.

This was a new/different addition to our Bash and I wanted to say thank you to you and your staff for making the 2020 Moog Bash a HUGE success.

I am writing on behalf of our entire staff to thank you and your staff for providing the exceptional and exciting entertainment for our Holiday Party. This year we wanted to try something new and different for the entertainment and were just what we were looking for! The quality of the dealers you provided was exceptional and just like being in a real casino. The best way that I, as a manager, can show my appreciation to the staff is to provide them with a great holiday party. With your help, I was able to do that. Thank you and I am looking forward to working with you at our annual summer party!

Thank you for a great evening! Friday night was the most successful Chamber event in a long time.
Read More...Hide Quote

I want to thank both of you for a great evening! Friday night at Eagle Vale was the most successful Chamber event in a long time. At home later that night my son Robin said to me, "Dad, if I knew how much fun tonight was going to be I would have invited all my poker buddies, they would have had a blast!" I believe his statement sums it up for all of us on the board that attended that night. We didn't know what to expect. Wow, what a surprise!! My only complaint is that the evening was over much too quickly. I would have played Blackjack until midnight! With the feedback I received that night I believe we will easily double the attendance next year. Perhaps next season we can put on a Casino night in late Nov. or early Dec. as a foundation for our Christmas party. Again thank you!
