Santa Claus Mike
Overview
I have a real beard and a very good quality suit. I am also an ordained minister. I was requested to become one in order to marry them as Santa in a Christmas themed wedding. BEAUTIFUL!! I have hundreds of photos from past years. I have entertained car dealerships, ARC, fire stations, parades, and corporate events. I also ride a Harley during the warmer months. Thank you for considering me for your next event!

December 26, 2025Santa Mike at Either/Or!
We had a wonderful time hosting Santa Mike at Either/Or during our busiest time of year. He was always on time and went above and beyond for the kids at our establishment. On day 4 of 4 for the holiday season, Mike offered to stay an extra 3 hours to meet the needs of the families! Cannot recommend Santa Claus Mike enough!

Thank you for the very kind words. I honestly consider you all as family. Either/Or is the place for families with children or empty nesters to visit!! Between the awesome food , decorations and the outdoor play area, everyone needs to check this place out!!

December 26, 2025Fantastic Santa
We hired Mike as Santa for a community event at Pinnacle Bank, and he was absolutely fantastic! From his warm, jolly demeanor to his authentic suit and cheerful voice, he brought real holiday magic to the day. Mike/Santa was fantastic with children and adults alike—patient, kind, and full of festive spirit. The weather was not great the day of our event, but Santa never cancels an event. He made it to the bank, even in inclement weather. He truly made every guest feel special. The photos turned out great, and we have received so many nice compliments on our event and Mike/Santa. We couldn’t have asked for a better Santa—highly recommend him for any holiday event!

Thank you!! For a 1st time event during a snowstorm… turned out amazingly!! I think we had 8 or 9 newborns and many families who were willing to brave the elements! It shows that Pinnacle Bank is near and dear to the community! Great work!! I look forward to seeing you all soon!!

Thank you for using your intuition to pick me!! You have a great atmosphere and the crowd proves how wonderful your team truly is! You set up a great area for families to see and visit me and allowed me the ample time to warm up the “not so trusting” children. Sometimes they need several minutes to relax and get to know Santa. Thank you again for choosing me to be a great addition to your family and I hope that you will have me back for years to come! Thank you!!

December 9, 2024Amazing at what he does!
Santa Mike was outstanding at our Breakfast with Santa event. You can tell he puts so much thought and detail into everything he does to be like Santa. The most impressive thing was he showed up early to make sure kids did not see "Santa" get out of a car. He was gentle and patient with all the children and I would highly recommend him!

He is very caring and passionate about his work and the kids love him. I enjoy taking my kids to him every year he truly keeps the magic alive for them.
