This is our third year to have Fabled Santa join us for our office Christmas party - he is the BEST!! The kids (and adults!) absolutely loved him!

Response from Fabled Santa:
Thank you for the 5 star review and the kind words. Easy to provide organized and courteous clients like you and we look forward to next year.
Fabled Santa did an AWESOME job at our company Christmas party - he mingled with the guests, passed out presents to the children, posed for pictures with everyone and exceeded all our expectations! Can't wait to book him again next year!

Response from Fabled Santa:
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!
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.

I booked Fabled Santa to do a Zoom visit with an elementary school class since we couldn't have an in-person party (COVID). Santa was extremely easy to work with. We had a pre-event discussion where he was available via call, text, or email. Super responsive and helpful with thinking about ideas. On the day of the event, he was right on time with great connectivity and a super awesome set up. He looked like he was in his toy shop in the North Pole! He was very patient as the teachers worked through their own technical difficulties. He went above and beyond and talked with each child individually, and then he read a story to the class. The one word I continue to use when describing him is Legit! He had a legit costume, legit background, legit conversation with the kids. I highly recommend and would definitely use him again!!

Thank you Tiffany for your wonderful review. Santa strives to deliver this kind of performance for every client and believes that the children deserve the best – the "real Santa" – as best we can. Your group was delightful and the helpful online elf a great addition to our online visit. We had a wonderful time and Santa is so pleased to hear that you did too. Can't wait to work with you again, hopefully under a different set of restrictions, but Santa is flexible and together, we can make it work.

Both the Grinch and I had a fabulous time and your party precautions were awesome. Even your sons’ drive-by participants felt included and loved their cookies. Thank you!

Response from Fabled Santa:
Santa has a wonderful time with a delightful group who needn’t be concerned about the naughty list. Thank you for the opportunity. Thanks to your daughter for suggesting the visit.
Fabled Santa
Everyone was marveled at how much he looked like their idea of Santa! He was right on time, very personable, and stayed until we got all of the pictures we wanted. Would definitely book him again. Highly recommend!

Response from Fabled Santa:
Fabled Santa enjoyed you, your husband, your wonderful staff and delightful clients, and learned a little more about Board and Brush and the terrific hand-crafted signs that could be made, reasonably, with your supplied materials. Congratulations and I look forward to returning.

We wanted this to be a very special Christmas because last year our grandson was in the hospital. Fabled Santa made our wish come true! He came prepared and talked to all three children about relevant things happening in their life and encouraged them to keep doing their best. He was patient and listened to each one of the kids. Santa showed us the names of his reindeer that are engraved on his jacket buttons and even let the kids hold his ankle bells! How many kids can say that they got to do that?! We sang Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer together and Santa sang solo with authority, "Rudolph with your nose so bright, won't you guide my sleigh tonight!" What a memorable visit! The kids are still talking about it and the adults all agree it was the best Christmas ever. Our hearts were blessed. Thank you, Fabled Santa!

We loved Fabled Santa :-) He really has a way with people - children and adults. We had so much fun and have great Santa photos from our Christmas party.

Response from Fabled Santa:
A party really comes together when the host makes such terrific plans, leaving nothing to go wrong. Fabled Santa was delighted to be a part of this wonderful celebration and to bring a little Christmas joy and reason for the season to this extended family with friends. Thank you for letting me join in the festive atmosphere and share with all of you.
I had tears in my eyes when Santa came in. He was so magical to the kids. It’s all his little details like giving me daughter his key when she was nervous that make him the best Santa ever. Is it too early to reserve him for next year?
Holiday Entertainment, Santa Claus, Storyteller
He was very pleasent and great at playing the part
Santa Claus
Our staff loved Fabled Santa! This is a believable portrayal by a fellow with true Christmas Spirit. Add an amazing Santa “suit” of high quality and you can announce with absolute credibility, “Others may hire actors, but we convinced the real Santa to visit us!”
Santa Claus
Arrived early was on spot for every part of the event! Will definitely book again!!

Response from Fabled Santa:
Special thanks to the Memphis Botanic Garden for allowing me to share in this wonderful night of lighting of the spectacular CIty of Memphis Christmas Tree and the gorgeous displays throughout this many acres. Santa had a terrific night of listening to wishes and providing a welcoming knee for children of all ages while many pictures were taken. Looking forward to my next appearance at this venue!
Fabled Santa was absolutely amazing!! He was wonderful beginning with booking and of course our magical visit! We were so blessed to have him join us to celebrate!!!

Response from Fabled Santa:
Thank you for the terrific review. I'm so pleased you allowed me to help capture lifetime memories with our magical visit.
He was very professional and would hire him again next year. We had him come Christmas Eve for our nephew.

Thanks.

Response from Fabled Santa:
Thank you Mrs. Scott. The house full of children was a challenge, but thanks to your preparation, Santa loved the event too.
Very professionally dressed , punctual and great interaction with guest and adapting to party atmosphere. Photographs well with guest!
Santa Claus
Response from Fabled Santa:
Thank you for your review. I had a great time and appreciate the respect that your guests gave to Santa. What a wonderful lifetime your daughter and her fiance will be entering and I loved having the opportunity to help entertain their engagement party. Several of your guests were previously at the Martin affair that I also was blessed to attend.
Fabled Santa bought happiness to many young faces at the Centering Pregnancy Jingle Jam. He had a great attitude and the children just loved him. Since we are non-profit, he discounted his rate and stayed longer to ensure that each young face was able to capture a photo with him. He is the "official" Santa for Centering Pregnancy.

Santa was absolutely perfect, worked with all my request and really came off as Santa with his presence. Made the night perfect and unforgetable for my boys and their little cousins.

The Fabled Santa did a fantastic job for my daughter's birthday party.
He looks beautiful and he would be the perfect Santa for your event!!!!
Santa Claus
Response from Fabled Santa:
Fabled Santa had a great time with the children and how clever of you to have a party favor - gift for everyone attending. Santa also had some backpacks he provided and I loved reading the story to the group. Your balloon twisting, game playing elf was also a nice addition to the party. Thank you for telling me you will have Fabled Santa back next year. I'm looking forward to seeing your three children again. Santa Stephen, Fabled Santa
Arrival was perfect and the kids were mesmerized. Love how you got the older ones to participate as well. It made for a very fun evening. You are SANTA!
Santa Claus
The Fabled Santa added a real atmosphere of Christmas alive as he assisted with celebration of a birthday for an honored Salvation Army leader, pulled a "Vanna White" for the live auction, and was kind enough to donate a home visit to the silent auction. The children in the fashion show got special gifts from him and they all loved seeing the "real" Santa.
Thanks for your help and support on this event which helped made it a great success!
Santa Claus
Response from Fabled Santa:
Fabled Santa had a ball helping the Salvation Army raise funds to support the over 5,000 children who benefit each year from the Angel Tree program. With over 400 attendees enjoying the Christmas spirit with Santa Claus, a great deal of fun was had by all. Thank you for selecting the Fabled Santa to help make this event the success that it was.
