Steve, Darrell, Dana and the rest of the team hosted an outstanding company party and made perfect preparations to create an easy to execute plan, making Fabled Santa's visit as smooth as possible. Santa enjoyed every minute of this event and looks forward to next year's party. Thank you for allowing Fabled Santa to visit with all of you, and the children!

December 13, 2013Perfect Santa!
What a wonderful experience we had with Fabled Santa. His level of professionalism is unmatched. He was completely at ease with our guests (children and adults alike) and he took the time to speak with everyone, much to the joy of everyone there. His presence added something special to our event. He looked exactly like his photos and spoke just like Santa. He is the real deal. We will book him again any time we have a Christmas event. If you hire Santa Stephen, the Fabled Santa, you will be very glad you did.

December 4, 2024Authentic & amazing!
From the jingle bells on his shoes to his jolly laugh, we absolutely love the Fabled Santa for our elementary school event. He was incredible, authentic and makes our event each year so special for the kids. It would not be the same without him, thank you Santa ! Merry Christmas

Thank you Jessica,
It's always a pleasure to see the bright, joyous faces of the children of Arlington Elementary, as well as the future students (lots of babies filling the pipeline). Love the cookies, and I look forward to next year's event.

February 20, 2023Personable and energetic! Guests loved him!
Fabled Santa surprised our 600+ adult guests at the Peabody! He joined the stage for a little song and then mingled with guests and posed for pictures for a couple of hours. He was fantastic and was the perfect “extra” to our Holiday party! Everyone loved him! He came from an event on Beale Street to our party. He was early and communicated with me via text when he was on the way. Quality suit and gear! As authentic of a Santa as you can get! :-)

About
Everyone wants a visit from the “real” Santa. To be honest, you may never know if you have met "him" or one of his well-trained helpers. However, you can't get much more authentic than the Fabled Santa. He is an experienced, naturally-bearded, real-bellied Santa Claus with a twinkle in his eye, cherubic ruby cheeks and a hearty Ho-Ho-Ho.
Fabled Santa is available for appearances at your special events as well as photo and video shoots. Santa will gladly attend civic, corporate, church, charity and private events and he can even visit your home on or just before Christmas Eve. There he will fill stockings and put out presents for a "caught-in-the-act" visit, or sit for pictures, tell stories, lead in singing Christmas carols and hand out presents.
What better way to make bring excitement to a “special delivery” of that a fur coat, piece of jewelry or new car? Use Santa Stephen, better known as Fabled Santa, to create an event your family will always remember! As a real-bearded, real-bellied, professionally trained, costumed and experienced Santa Claus, Fabled Santa can help fulfill your every need for a “real” Santa Claus, including:
• Corporate Events and Parties (appears for OR Nurses International, Wright Medical, Green Square Investments, and ...)
• Fundraisers and Charity Events
• Private Parties, including Birthday Parties
• Home Visits, including Christmas Eve and Sneak Peaks
• Appears annual as Santa Elvis for Graceland's celebrity Christmas and Grounds lighting ceremony
• Parades, Tree Lightings, and Community Events (appears for the Beale St - Memphis Parade, St Jude, Le Bonheur, City of Memphis/Botanic Garden, Cooper/Young)
• Business Open Houses
• Commercials and Special Events
• Print and Video Advertising
• Elf on the Shelf "Consultations"
• Hospital and Hospice Visits (appears for Le Bonheur and St Jude Hospital needs)
• And More!

Set list
A sturdy chair and water are always welcomed. For appearances extending beyond an hour, Santa requires an occasional break. A room away from the public venue is appreciated for extended portrayals and if arriving at your home, a convenient parking place reserved for Santa is appreciated. Please keep the temperature of the performance area as cool as possible, with a target temperature of 68F preferred.

The Fabled Santa's portrayal will likely meet and exceed your expectations, but he's willing to accommodate certain special aspects of your anticipated visit. Be sure to discuss your expectations so he can be prepared to adapt to your needs.
