Response from Santa Randy:
Thank you Colleen!! It was a great event and I loved being your Santa,and hope to see you next year.
What a wonderful experience for our town’s children and families at our annual PTO Holiday Bazaar! Santa Randy made a grand entrance with his “Ho Ho Ho”s to a thunderous applause and the fun never stopped. He took photos with excited children and “Mingled and Jingled” with at least 500 community members throughout the day, to which we heard nothing but praise. He was professional and respectful but didn’t miss an opportunity to pose at our “selfie station” or give fist-bumps and high fives. He even added a little extra special magic to an almost non-believer’s day...she left a firm believer again. Hopefully Santa Randy will be coming to our town again next year!

The Gingerbread House absolutely loved Santa Randy! He was wonderful with every single child...took as much time and as many hugs as each child needed. He made a perfect entrance as the children were finishing their pageant singing "Santa Claus is coming to town".....So many smiles on the parents faces as well as the children! We hope to have him visit again....maybe in the summer just to check and be sure we're all still on the "nice' list..
.Loved him.... Thank you again Santa, for making this such a special memory:)

Santa Randy came to our family's Christmas Eve gathering and did a great job. He looks like the real deal and has the right personality for the job. We were very pleased.

Response from Santa Randy:
Thank you. I can't wait to be your Santa next year.
Santa Randy was absolutely the most professional, and realistic Santa I have ever been in contact with. He has a love of the part that would make anybody smile. He even had some of the adults believing. Made all the children smile with his charm and his character. I would recommend him (and have) to anybody looking for a Santa for their party.

We could not have been happier. The look on my Granddaughters face, and the dreams in her eyes melted my heart! Fantastic experience for the young AND the young at heart!! 👍👍

Santa Randy exudes the true spirit of Christmas. He went out of his way to connect with every young child and every teen; taking extra special time for one very reluctant child. Santa Randy has made our Christmas complete. Thank you, and Merry Christmas Santa Randy!

Santa Randy was wonderful at our family Xmas party. The children loved him and he took time with each child to make sure they all felt special. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to others.

From the moment Santa Randy walked into our home, he showed his pure happiness and love for the children and the 'job'. The older kids that may have been skeptical, now believe! He was amazing!

Response from Santa Randy:
Thank you so much!! You did an awesome job on that event.
I hope to see you soon.
Santa Randy is undoubtedly the most wonderful Santa to have at any event. He is fantastic with the kids and parents alike. He even stayed later than expected as we had a larger crowd than expected, which was so kind of him. If you choose Santa Randy to attend your event, you will never be disappointed!

We hired Santa Randy for our Corporate family outing day which was a Christmas in July theme. Santa Randy was on time, charming, amazing with the kids and truly embodied what Santa is all about. Everyone was in love with him. Almost every child went to him with no problem and you could tell he really enjoys what he does. I would absolutely recommend Santa Randy, he will make any Christmas party (even in July) a huge success!

Santa Randy was great to work with! I hired him to work with me at my Photography studio for some Santa photos with children ranging in age from 3 months to 8 years old! He was great! Very professional, and all the children loved him!

Response from Santa Randy:
Thank you very much, next year will be bigger than ever!!
Santa Randy was amazing! He had all the children captivated from the moment he walked in. They were excited and so happy to see him. My niece who is 2 and was scared to sit on his lap at the beginning was hugging him before he left! Thank you Randy for making our Christmas gathering extra special! We hope to see you again next year!

Santa Randy is so wonderful with kids and parents. Not only did he take multiple pictures with well over 100 children, but he did it with a smile the entire time and the kids absolutely loved him. We'll be booking him again next year!

Where do we start? Santa Randy was friendly, charming, professional and a natural with the kids. To say the kids and parents LOVED him is an understatement. He really is all that Santa embodies. All I can say is SUPER, WONDERFUL, AWESOME & WOW!!! You won't be disappointed.

What an enjoyable day! Santa Randy is the perfect Santa Claus. Friendly, jolly, just what a Santa is expected to be. He easily adapted to our unique situation. We enjoyed him so much, we hope he is available again. Thank you Santa Randy... All was perfect for our mini tiny dancer celebration.

About
I take on the traditional Santa look that most kids of all ages look to see in a Santa. My goal is to keep the Magic of Santa alive in my visit.
While I am with you, you just might say: Are you the real Santa?
I would say "Hohoho! do you believe in Santa?"
Lets keep the magic going for the kids! And just maybe you will believe again.
Additional Booking Notes
Changing area for Santa is important in some instances and a christmas backdrop for the pictures would be nice but not necessary.

Influences & Inspiration
One of my best experiences was - a grandmother hired me to come to see her 2 grandsons, aged 5 and 8, well the 8yr old did not believe in Santa. She gave me a little info in advance about the 8 yr old that he would never think Santa would know. I was there for only 20 to 30 minutes and when I left the 8 yr old was hugging Santa and telling Santa how good he will be!! This is why I am Santa---The KIDS!
Setup Requirements
Christmas setting would be nice but not necessary.
Grand Entrance. Get everyone together before Santa enters. Then, at the right moment Santa can pop in and join everyone in the fun.
Santa’s helpers. If you have a large group of children to see Santa, you should assign someone to be Santa’s helper.
Place Santa’s chair near your Christmas tree or in a holiday setting with plenty of light. No glass windows behind Santa. Maybe in front of a fireplace (with no fire) with stockings hanging or any festive type of backdrop.
Have a sturdy chair for Santa to sit in. A good straight-back, ARMLESS dining room chair works well. No armchairs please.
If you have gifts for Santa to bring in with him, have someone meet Santa outside. The gifts should fit into Santa's bag that is about the same size as a 35 gal trash bag.
