December 30, 2025Fabulous Santa!
Looking for a Santa...look no further! Santa James is amazing and goes above and beyond what he is contracted for. Unbeknownst to us, he made a promotional video before AND after our event! We had to get a new Santa after our Santa (who had done ALL of our events since we opened) moved away. In a small town , the kids had grown up with him and we were worried that a new Santa might not live up to the hype ( huge shoes to fill). Santa James knocked it out of the park!!!! With his "magic" and knowing sign language ....the kids proclaimed This MUST be the REAL Santa. Santa literally stayed until the last table was gone.....well past his contracted time . ( Appreciated and NOT expected). 10 stars ...literally

December 10, 2025Excellent all around
For 10 years we've been hosting a neighborhood Christmas party. The focal point of the party has always been an appearance by Santa. Unfortunately, the Santa we've used up to now retired this year. I reluctantly started the process of trying to find a replacement and I couldn't have been happier to find Santa James. He was extremely responsive throughout the process. He reached out the week prior to go over the plan for his visit and texted multiple times the day before and day of the event to confirm his status. The appearance itself was everything we could hope for. He incorporated the traditions that we requested from our prior years as well as adding some of his own flare. Santa James had big boots to fill and definitely came through for us and our children. We've already told him we will be booking him again next year. Highly recommend!
