Santa Larry
Overview
I honestly am blessed when I can make someone smile when they see me as Santa, even in my everyday life! I have been honored to appear at children’s birthday parties, family photo sessions, corporate parties, senior living center and children learning centers. As grandfather to 8 under 12, I know how special the magic of Christmas can be for the children and parents as well.

December 17, 2025Wonderful Experience with Santa Larry!
Santa Larry appeared at a gala at SMU and did an excellent job posing for pictures and socializing with the adults-only crowd. He arrived on time and ready to go. I would definitely hire him again for an event with adults or children! Thank you, Santa Larry!

December 9, 2025A True Five Star Santa!
Santa Larry was absolutely wonderful! He is incredibly friendly, professional, and truly looks just like Santa. He gave our learning center the perfect Santa experience. He did an amazing job engaging with every parent, child, and staff member. Everyone loved him, and every family got a picture. We couldn’t have asked for a better Santa. Highly recommend Santa Larry!

November 14, 2025Perfect Santa!
Larry not only looked like the classic Santa you dreamed of when you were little, but was super friendly and gently with all of the kids. He was easy to work with, showed up with a smile and was very attentive to all of the families. The kids and the parents adored him and felt very comfortable having him hold/interact with their kids. We could not have asked for a better Santa for our event!

About
After retiring from the US Postal Service after 37 years, I know how to deliver a package with a smile, a kind word and leave with an encouraging blessing for the customer. After my beard turned white, children would ask their parents if I was Santa. So, I began the course to “become” Santa. I am still learning, and enjoying the journey. My 8 grandchildren keep me on my toes, and I still try and teach them all that I know about sports. Santa Larry knows sports! I watch all that I can while resting up for my next event!
