Me and one of my elves...
Merry Christmas all y'all!
Plano Christmas Parade - 2024
Santa. Interact with children of all ages. I try to spend time with each, not rush through. I have various books to read from, a toy bag for gift exchanges, and sometimes, Mrs. Claus.
Rates will vary with Mrs. Claus in attendance.

December 21, 2025We wanted to have Santa come to our very special event that honored our daughter that we lost to a drunk driver. I came across Santa Wes and thought he would be perfect! He helped make this day special for all of our friends and loved ones. He was the most kind and amazing Santa and brought the extra cheer that we needed today! We can't wait to have him back next year!

December 18, 2025Santa Wes was absolutely wonderful! He brought so much joy, warmth, and holiday magic to our school event. He was kind, patient, and truly engaging with every child, making each moment feel special. His professionalism and genuine love for what he does really stood out. Our families and staff were so impressed, and the smiles on the children’s faces said it all. We would highly recommend Santa Wes and hope to work with him again in the future. Have a blessed holiday!

In 2019 I stumbled upon a Santa Suit at Hobby Lobby, marked down of course. I set my sights on bringing to life my inner Santa. That was our start, in our front yard. I've invested into my current suit and expanded my knowledge of St. Nick and whom he truly represents. I've always had a "gift" with little ones going back to helping in our church nursery.
Nowadays, I constantly get side glances from the young and not so young. If asked if I "play Santa" at Christmas, my response is simple... I don't play. I give my undivided attention to each and every little sole I meet. It isn't a quick "what do you want?" session, but general interest in whom they are, school, sports, favorite foods... really get them to talk about themselves. When it comes to the "what is on your list" time, I make sure I repeat items loud enough for grand/parental observation. I will also ask if they had mom/dad check their list for spelling errors. The elves like to help me read the lists, and they have trouble sometimes... Don't want you to end up with Brussels Sprouts.
I have been the official Santa for Prince Of Peace Catholic Community for three years (am a Knight of Columbus). I have families that I am their Santa... going back to first visits in 2020.
In 2024, my elves and I had the joyous time of being in the Plano City Holiday Parade. I loved getting there early and mingling with participants.
I am a real bearded Santa. Does that matter much? Not really, but if someone asks if I'm really him, I offer up a gentle tug on the beard... Not fake.
My full time employer allows me to take time away in December to make magic happen.
I also help them out in various "giving back" visits, so its a win-win.
I am always open to expanding my "performance."
I hope you and yours have the most Merry of Christmas's possible... and as I tell all the little ones...
I won't ask you to be perfect, its not possible. Ask Mrs. Claus if Santa is perfect and she will laugh!
What I will ask is that you do your best in everything you do... except being naughty...
I try to pull from a few Santa's.
Tim Allen - The Santa Clause
Kurt Russell - The Christmas Chronicles
The animated movie, Klaus.
Each brings a bit of whom I try to be.
Lastly, my children saw "The Big Guy" in Fairview every year until he passed. We truly miss him.
