First Timer... Need advice on clubs

[smokeshop]

Hi JC!!

Ok im a Vegas newby coming week of Oct 25-Oct 28.

Im coming with 5 SINGLE guys and I want to know which clubs would be best for us. We like hip hop music (not gangsta rap but club hip hop)... We hate exclusive EDM, trying to avoid those places. We plan on going out fri,sat,sun and we are getting bottle service to every club. All 5 of us are willing to spend $1500-$2000 per night altogether ($300+ per person) on bottles. Im presuming we would need 2 bottles min.

This is what I have planned:

Fri - Marquee Boombox room
Sat - 1 OAK
Sun - Bank (or any other suggestions)

Remember we like club hip hop and just looking to grab some ladies (no sausage fest)... What do you guys think? Need some advice from you pros.

That lineup looks perfect to me for what you're looking for.
your budget should be doable for all of those as well. Just contact Noah at Marquee and Joey for 1oak and bank.
Mention you're a JC member and tell them your group size and the minimu you want. They'll make sure you're taken care of.

what chuck said. only thing is i would switch 1OAK to friday and marquee sat.

1OAK = Buy2get1 - 1200 All in for 3 skyy
Marquee = 1k minimum
Bank = Buy2get1 - Depends on which bottles you choose, i believe Goose is 500+ so maybe about 1500 all in.

I'd take Dex's advice on that

[smokeshop]

I contacted some hosts, they never mentioned the B1G1, do they tell you this once your at the club?

[DeX]

Ask for it. You're not gonna get it @ Marquee on saturday but 1OAK on friday and bank on sunday yes. Idk about a b1g1 for 5 dudes though. B2G1 seems more likely. Did you contact Joey Orr for bank and 1OAK?

[Chuck]

Make sure you mention that you are a JC Forum member and/or Dex referred you...it matters.

I contacted some other hosts like last month just to get a sense. I will contact the you have listed, thanks. I should wait a week before to contact them, or now fine?

One last question, if I am quoted a purchase minimum for example $1500, does that mean I pay first and then just get credits inside? What if I have money left over, can I get beers or does the club just keep it as extra tip money? Does this $1500 include the hosts tip? I know I got to tip busboy and security. Would I also need to pay the host onto, if it's 1500 minimum, how much total I looking at with all the tips for the night, what is everything all in cost?

$1500 is the minimum your table has to spend over the course of the evening. It's your choice how to get to that minimum, but generally three bottles at most places will put you at $1500. Most places make you order your minimum once you're seated at your table, and the waitress will bring them all out at once. You'll get an unlimited amount of three different mixers with the booze, bottles of water and red bulls are extra almost everywhere. After that $1500, you have to factor in a tax of 8.1% and a 20% gratuity for your waitress, both of which are automatically billed to you. That puts you at about $1950. After that, it's totally up to you what you tip your host, busser, and security. General rule of thumb is $50-$100 per bottle for the host. I usually split $100 between the busser and security. If you're looking for ladies, tipping your host and security can go a long way. Generally, I go in expecting to pay 1.5 about times the minimum that the host quoted me.

With 5 guys each willing to spend $300 a night, you can easily have a great time getting two bottles every night. A lot of places can get you right near the middle of the action for only two bottles, and if you guys decide to get three bottles, you have a lot more options. Like others have said, never hurts to ask about getting a buy 2 get 1 deal. Just remember to mention you're a JC member.

Can I just get 2 goose bottles and tip the host like $300 in order to get in and avoid $1500 min, I really dont want to go over $300 a per person.

And is VIP roped area better than a random table? I know you have to dish out more money, I just hate crowed areas and random people always bumping into you. In VIP places like Miami, th security guards brings the girls in and keep random dudes out.

Where is the best place to tables get in Boombox room (marquee) and in 1OAK? I know both can get crowded

[WT661]

$1500 minimum doesnt include tax and tip to server/host/busboy/security. You have to prepare for that on top of the minimum

Most VIP areas are roped off if its within areas that are super crowded/high traffic areas. there are some clubs where some tables are away from that and wont be roped off.

To get into VIP I got to most likely pay more than minimum?
