Highly sought after real-bearded Santa for visits, parties and special events. Ten years of great success at Westfield Plaza Camino Real and 17 years of experience.
Santa Gary was the best Santa - highly recommend him! He has such a sweet demeanor and was so good with the kids. He even brought gifts for each kid which was such a special addition. I would definitely have Santa Gary come again and am truly thankful for making our party so magical!

Thank you for the kind thoughts. I had a wonderful time with everyone. The children were well behaved and seemed to enjoy the story. God bless you all and have a wonderful Christmas season.

Santa Gary was great at our company Christmas party! The kids loved him, and even the adults did too! Our party would not have been the same without him! We are looking forward to seeing him next year.

Thank you so much for the very kind comments. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting your "family" and talking with many of them. A wonderful experience for Santa.
Santa Gary
Kids loved, adults loved... he is the best... I am very recommended
Our very special visit from Santa is something our family will never forget. He was jolly, kind and sweet to all of us. He brought special gifts and read a story to the children.
We had a wonderful time with Santa Gary! He was just perfect! We had him pass out gifts to about 50 children, and he walked around the party to each individual table to greet the families. We had around 150 people total at the party. He also took time for family photos. Very professional, and absolutely adorable. I would recommend 10/10. Can't wait to have him back next year!
Response from Santa Gary:
Alexis kept me well informed from the time she booked me. A pleasure to work with. Love that this organization treated their employees to a wonderful Christmas gathering. A wonderful experience all the way around.
Santa Gary was amazing! He was great with the kids and took his time with each one. Hope to have him back next year.
Response from Santa Gary:
Loved this event - got to see lots of children who were well behaved. The event was very well organized and a pleasure to do. A+ for the planners and the volunteers who were a pleasure to work with.

We had Santa over for a breakfast at the house with about 15 children. He was a delight. He brought a story to read, handed out gifts and mingled with the kids and parents. He was a hit. We would book him again without reservation.
Santa was warm and welcoming. So great with the children, I would recommend him to anyone!
Response from Santa Gary:
This was a wonderful event. I am a Christian and this was an outreach event by Zion Church. The people I worked with that night treated me with great respect and were very helpful. A joy to experience.
Santa Gary came to our annual holiday party and was the hit of the event. He looks GREAT - Just like Santa. He interacted with all the kids and families. He even brought a little toy for each child. Don’t hesitate to book Santa Gary. He was also very professional in his communication, showed up early and was a pleasure to deal with.
Response from Santa Gary:
I thoroughly enjoyed being Santa for the family and friends. Very casual atmosphere which made it easy to interact with everyone and calm some of the children who were fearful. All around wonderful event. Sarah and hubby were a pleasure to interact with.
What a blessing! Santa Gary is the real deal. A kind, gentle soul who we were incredibly grateful to welcome for a visit with our two little ones (5 and 2). He read stories, provided gifts, and shared the spirit of Christmas with our family. We loved Santa Gary's visit and hope to see him again! Thank you, Santa and Merry Christmas!
Response from Santa Gary:
Thank you Justin for the kind words. I loved the look on your 5 year olds face when you opened the door. The girls were so sweet and polite. This is why I love being Santa - the magic in the eyes of the little ones and also watching Mom and Dad enjoy the interaction. I am blessed to be able to bring joy to many. You have a wonderful family. Merry Christmas and God bless you.
Gary was on time- so kind and nurturing to the kids- everyone at the party commented how fantastic he was and the kids loved him/
Santa Gary was amazing, he is really kind and loves what he does. Gary was easily one of the best parts of the night. All it took was one phone call for us to be on the same page and when he arrived he went the extra mile. Thank you Gary for an amazing time!
We had an amazing time with Santa Gary! Everyone kept commenting what a real looking Santa he was! I also have to mention that we had 25+ kids and he was so calm and patient… and had little gifts for every kid!! Highly recommend Santa Gary if you want to add some magic to your party!
Response from Santa Gary:
I thoroughly enjoyed sharing in your shower/Christmas Party. Such a joy to be able to share an evening with so many children (of all ages) and be a part of your wonderful event. I truly hope your guests got some great pics with Santa. Your daughter was so cute when she kept coming back to talk some more. May your pregnancy go smoothly and may God bless you with a healthy, happy baby.
Love
Santa Gary
We loved having Santa Gary at our Holiday Party. He was wonderful with the kids, he even brought gifts for all of them. The kids were entranced by the story he read to them.
After a crazy year it was so great to have some normalcy. Our kids were SO excited to see Santa and interact with him. He talked to each kid individually, took pictures, read a story, and even had little gifts to give them. All of it was so special and I’m SO happy we found him!
Santa had so much patience did a beautiful job handing out little
Gifts and talking with the kids. Everyone was so happy their kids got to experience such a special Christmas memory
Response from Santa Gary:
A very fun party. Great families and children and they were very attentive as Santa read the story. Lots of children and that is what makes it special. I love being Santa.
I hired Santa Gary for a photoshoot. He was on-time and made every moment with each child special and something to remember. He's charming and has a great personality. We didn't have that many children who were scared but he used his Santa ways to make all the kids comfortable. Can't wait to work together again.
Santa Gary was incredible! He was an absolute Joy to work with, and the magic that he brought to my clients was perfect. I'm already looking forward to next year!
The kids all love Santa Gary! Thank you!
Santa Gary is the real deal, he made a believer out of our Teenagers.
My youngest daughter said, “Santa is just like the story books, his cheeks are red and his beard is as white as snow”.
We are glad we pick the right Santa.
Thank you!
We had so much fun with Santa 🎅🏼
We had a great time with Santa at our event, and we will be hiring him again!
Thank you Santa Gary for an amazing experience for our employees children!! You are so realistic and they all had a wonderful time!!! See you next year!!!
Highly recommended! Santa Gary is the best. Thank you thank you!
Santa Gary was the highlight of our Christmas. The children as well as the adults were mesmerized by his character. If you really want to do something special for your family at Christmas, invite Santa Gary to your home.

I find that normally the best approach is to take photos first. Depending on the client I will read/share a book or story. I will hand out gifts that you provide and sometimes will have my own gifts to share. I always like to coordinate with the client to determine what they expect and how they would like the visit to proceed. I often remove my coat to bring a relaxed atmosphere and I have a variety of long sleeved Christmas shirts (snowmen, teddy bears, etc.).
I have been Santa for about 20 years now and just love it. Children of all ages light up with a smile even when I am here on "vacation" and go to a store or just roam about. I have had a wide variety of experiences starting with ten years at the Plaza Camino Real in Carlsbad CA from (phone number hidden)3.
I am a blessed and privileged man to be Santa and 2021 ended up being a very very busy season. I think people were looking for relief from COVID and all that accompanied it. Most of my previous clients are back and what a joy it was to see my friends. I have visited Babies in Bloom in Vista several years and it is a joy because of repeat families and wonderful children. The Bridges in Rancho Santa Fe is always a joyous time because they have wonderful families and a beautifully decorated area. A sweet couple had me at their wedding reception because they love Christmas and Santa and it was a fun time getting photos with everyone. I added a visit to the Europa Village Winery in Temecula for their annual party. I did some volunteer events for Pathway Health Clinic, The Women’s Resource Center and the Angel Tree Family event at Calvary Chapel Oceanside and brought smiles to lots of children and families. As always I did several home visits and love those surprised looks when the children open the door. The magic of Christmas is alive and well.
