Christmas Magic ✨🎅🏼

We hired Santa to surprise my daughter and her friend during our annual gingerbread party! Santa read a book, sang songs and made our event magical. I highly recommend this Santa - he is the real deal and delivers Christmas magic to not only the children but the adults as well!

Santa Bernard IS Santa!!

Santa Bernard was delightful to not only work with in the planning process but also witnessing him interact with the guests of the wedding we hired him to be part of. He was gracious when we had to delay his entrance time and also brought so much joyful energy to the reception without stealing the spotlight from the couple. His approach was so balanced. Guests absolutely loved getting their photos with him at the photo booth and he kept everything delightful and engaging. His suit and beard looked so authentic. Down to the bells on his shoes. If you're looking for Santa, you've found him in Santa Bernard!!

Santa Bernard is the BEST !!!

I met Santa Bernard at a “Santa Breakfast” at Maggiano’s restaurant in Cherry Hill New Jersey. I brought my grandkids and family to the event. Santa Bernard was one of the best Santa’s I have ever experienced in any event for the holidays. His ability to engage with the whole crowd…..especially the children was phenomenal. And his outfit [Old World Santa with the long red coat] was impeccable, and he wore it with a very comfortable appearance. I would recommend Santa Bernard to anyone that was looking for an authentic, engaging, real life, Santa for any of event around the holidays.

Exceptional!

Santa Bernard did three “Santa Paws” events for our residents and their pets. The feedback was wonderful. He came prepared with dog treats and beds. We will most certainly want him back next year and will be increasing the number of events.

What to expect

HOME VISITS: A home visit is usually about 60 minutes, but could be longer, depending on the number in attendance, and the number of photos, and the number of activities.

A few weeks before the visit, I will ask you to send me a list of the children's names, and 1-2 positive events ( good grades; clean room; school, music, art, or sports awards; etc.). This list will be placed in "Santa's Good or Bad Book," and will be read by Santa during the visit. The list can also apply to any adults, but the positives could be: new home; newly married; new child; new job; job promotion; graduation from school; etc.

During Santa's visit, Santa Bernard can; read a story to the children; collect and read the children's wish lists; sing a few Christmas Carols, pose for photos; and hand out pre-wrapped gifts.

Santa Bernard will spend time with each child and ask, “What would you like for Christmas?” If the child has a wish list, Santa Bernard will read the list, and then ask questions such as: "Have you have been good?" "Have you been listening to your parents?" "Have you been keeping your room clean?" "Have you been good to your teachers?" "Are you getting good grades?" "Have you been doing your homework?" Then, after answering the questions, The child is now ready to pose for pictures.

After all of the children have spent time with Santa, the adults can then pose with Santa for pictures. Adults can sit on Santa’s lap, sit next to Santa, kneel in front of Santa, or stand next to Santa.

If gifts are to be distributed, the gifts should wrapped, and have the name of the recipient on a tag attached to the present. ALL gifts should be placed in 2 SEPARATE plastic bags: 1 bag for children’s’ gifts; and 1 bag for adults’ gifts, and then placed outside the front door. Santa Bernard will transfer the bags of gifts into his sack before entering. Santa will distribute the gifts to each child AT THE END OF THE VISIT!

CORPORATE PARTIES; OFFICE PARTIES; RESTAURANT PARTIES:
Santa Bernard has served as Santa for many corporate Christmas parties including; ELAP Services in Wayne PA; eMoney in Radnor, PA; Benchmark Construction in Lancaster PA; HiBu in King of Prussia; and INTECH Construction in Philadelphia.
Santa Bernard has also served as the Santa for "Breakfast with Santa" for Maggiano's in King of Prussia, PA, and Maggiano's in Cherry Hill, NJ.
Santa Bernard is available to greet guests, distribute gifts, pose for photos, and lead ALL in Christmas Carols. Santa will also mingle with guests and pose for "selfies."

STORE VISITS:
Santa Bernard will hand out flyers or small gifts, mingle with customers, pose for photos with customers, and if the opportunity presents itself, engage customers in Christmas caroling!

THE BOTTOM LINE: SANTA BERNARD WILL SPREAD JOY TO ALL!!!

NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS:
Santa Bernard has time set aside for non-profit organizations at no cost, or minimal fees. If your non-profit organization would like the services of Santa Bernard, please make contact ASAP. If Santa Bernard can not appear at your requested time period, Santa Bernard may be able to make a quick stop at another time.

About

I have been a teacher for about 20 years. Throughout the years, my students (and teachers) have told me, "You look like Santa Claus!" So, about 10 years ago I bought a Santa suit and have been Santa for family and friends. For my 60th birthday, my family and friends sent me to the C.W. Howard Santa Claus School, the "Harvard of Schools for Santa." Since graduating, I have been Santa at many functions such as Breakfast with Santa, Christmas Eve family gatherings, and as my school Santa. In 2014, I had the privilege to be the evening-shift Santa at the King of Prussia Mall. As much as I have enjoyed being Santa at the King of Prussia Mall, it did not allow me enough time to interact with people.

In 2015, I became a member Gig Salad, received over 100 requests, and made about 30 appearances as Santa. Those appearances ranged from a small apartment with 3 people, to large corporate parties with about 200 people. Regardless of the size of the function, I was able to interact with people by reading Christmas stories to children, reading from "Santa's Good and Bad List," engaging ALL in singing Christmas Carols, and posing for pictures with children, adults, and entire families.

Additional booking notes

For parties where children are present, Santa asks that their hands and faces have been washed, and to not have any food or drinks when taking photos. As for adults, my most important request is to not have any drinks in your hands while being photographed with Santa. The image of Santa does mix with drinks. Last but not least, please have a reserved parking space close to the proximity of Santa's entrance.

Influences and inspiration

Prior to becoming a professional Santa, each Fall, I would allow my naturally white beard to grow. After Thanksgiving Day, I would wear my Santa hat while going out to fast-food restaurants, super markets, or any place out in public. Children and adults would stare at me in amazement, and I would let out a "Ho,ho,ho." Then I would ask them, "Are you being good?" After seeing the joy I brought to children of ALL ages by such a brief encounter, I told myself I needed to take this to the next level and "become Santa."
So, I would say that that those brief encounters, influenced me to "become Santa"

Setup requirements

For photos, please have a large chair and an area with room for group photos.
