Here are a few low cost centerpiece ideas:
1. Candles. Get candles in your wedding color and/or different heights
2. Card Castle. Get a deck of cards and build a house with them. Glue the cards together and place them on the table. One deck usually make 5 big houses.
3. Fuzzy Dice. Buy Fuzzy dice in your wedding color and put them in a large glass vase.
4. Records. You can go to thrift stores and buy albums (Famous Vegas artist IE, Elvis, The Rat Pack) and use them for your centerpiece. Each table can have a different artist.
Try Mixing and Matching the above too!
Happy Wedding :)

I actually got married in Vegas last month, and Vegas was truely about the slot machines *There was a few outside the chapel!* But I think playing cards fanned out under a glass circle with a dice candle on top? I know if you go to party stores you can sometimes find some fun Vegas-y type things. Whatever you end up doing, bright colors are the way to go! Hope this helped.

You could scatter playing cards on the center of each table. (Or every few feet on a long table.) They would decorate the table and act as entertainment for guests who aren't interested in dancing after the meal.
You could put floating candles inside of glass bowls/vases from a dollar store. Instead of putting marbles or glass stones in the bottom, you could use dice or poker chips...wait these things might not sink to the bottom. Well, if they don't sink, you could still place a candle inside of a glass bowl with dice or poker chips scattered around the candle. (Just don't add water.)
You could get cone-shaped party hats from a party store. Then, you could glue sets of playing cards on the sides of the hats. Even better if you strategically place the cards in pairs equaling 21 or in hands that would do well in poker (straight, full house, flush, two pair, etc).
You could set a dice cups the tables and set them on top of a few sheets of Yahtzee paper (you could even photocopy Yahtzee paper if you didn't want to buy too much of it). The cups would each contain five dice and a pencil so guests could entertain themselves while they wait for their food or after the meal.
I hope you have a great wedding. It sounds like this theme could be a lot of fun!

What about making fake casino chips and scattering them across the center of the table. You can also buy those picture holder thigies that clip the picture but place playing cards there instead. thats kinda neat
