Santa Richard arrived early to our event. He was very friendly and approachable. The kids loved him. He took pictures with all the kids and mingled with them too. You can tell he loves his job. Definitely reserving him for next year.

December 25, 2022Santa Richard will not disappoint!
Santa Richard was great from booking to the end of the event. He touched based with me right away after the booking and the communication throughout was excellent. He showed up on time for us to meet outside to give him gifts for his bag.
Santa Richard really looks the part - very authentic, real beard and all! He brought a book with him for the kiddos. Santa played games with the kids and made a point of connecting with each one, even the teenagers who may not believe. It was SO magical and fun.
Santa Richard knows a LOT of Santa Clause history as well, which was fun for the adults too.
Thank you, Santa Richard!
I highly recommend Santa Richard. Merry Christmas!

Thank you for inviting me to your event. I was able to completely forget about the troubles of the last few years and enjoy being with happy people meeting a distant friend again.

December 15, 2022Great Santa!
We had a party for families who have kids with special needs. Santa Richard was a pro, he was comfortable and friendly with everyone. We had great feedback from staff and families alike, and he was pleasant to work with to set up the details. Highly recommended.

The absolute perfect professional. Our Grandbabies first Christmas and the Pandemic, Santa accepted our extreme distancing idea and turned out better than I imagine. The look and mannerism and such a genuinely kind man. Will be my go to forever. Blessed to have found Santa.

What to expect
I am an older gentleman who loves to talk to people of all ages. I smile frequently. I also like to sing with others and have been known to favor cookies. But I also want to be around for a while, so I only eat cookies on special occasions.

Influences and inspiration
My character is informed by the real Saint Nicholas and then shaped by the wonderful tales told about him after he retired from his church duties, got married, and moved North. Way up North.
Setup requirements
For longer events, I enjoy being seated. And dancing. But not professionally, of course.
