Duane Paul (A New York Santa)

I hired Santa Duane to take photos with my kids for our holiday card and he did an amazing job! Was very sweet and patient. Would definitely hire him again!

We hired Duane to be Santa at our assisted living facility for our big holiday event for residents, family members and staff. He was so easy to work with, professional and warm! He even pitched in and helped us serve some residents cookies and cocoa! I will definitely hire Duane again! He went above and beyond!!

We love Santa! I own a daycare center and he is so patient with all the kids, including the ones that are afraid. It’s the most magical day of the year at our center!!!

Thanks again for making our town event amazing.

Santa Duane communicated well with me during the booking process and then again in the week prior to the event. He arrived early and was ready prior to his scheduled time. He was very accommodating and super kind with the children. He read Twas the night before Christmas several times as different groups of kids arrived. We were very happy and will hire him again if we repeat this event. Thank you Duane.

Duane is the centerpiece of our annual Christmas at the Castle event. Customer comments couldn't be more positive about their experience with Duane. It's always a pleasure to work with him and we can't imagine a better version of the holidays than the one we have with him.

This is our second year we have used Duane and we absolutely love him!!! Wouldn’t use anyone else!!!! Already planning next years visit!!!!!

The Santa we have used for many many years was unfortunately unavailable this year and we found ourselves in a tight spot looking for a new Santa to join us for our 15th annual winter event. Santa Duane was wonderful and super accommodating! He road in on a Roaming Railroad to take photos with kids & adults alike. He was also extra flexible when we had to unexpectedly pause visits with Santa so that we could host a surprise dance crew performance. We greatly appreciated his willingness to work with us on a very busy day.

Overall, very gentle & kind with the kids! People said he was the highlight of the event!

Duane is a huge part of why our annual Christmas At The Castle event is a success. We consistently hear the same feedback from all our guests - he's the best looking Santa around and a pleasure to work with. He's a patient and considerate man and simply the best part of our holiday event calendar...no question at all. Looking forward to many more years of Merry Christmases with him.

We hired Duane for our first-ever Decemberfest at Eastdale Village in Poughkeepsie, NY. Not only did he look the part, but was on point with his communication leading up to the event and on the day of. Everyone was raving about him! We plan on hiring Duane for every future holiday event.

10/10 Recommend!

Duane was an absolutely joy to work with! He came to our daycare center and went to every classroom from infants to preschool! He took the time to talk to each child, answer their questions and bring smiles to their faces!! Can not wait to book him for next year!!!!

Santa was very flexible and came earlier when needed. He was a big hit at our christmas party. I highly recommend him!

Duane brought our Christmas vision to life! He was an absolute pleasure to work with from the start. Professional, personable and prompt. Arrived early, was prepared for any weather changes and jumped right into character. All of our family, friends, children and guests were blown away by his authenticity. He was engaging and respectful and the children couldn't get enough of him. Everyone wanted a photo with Santa!
Santa is real! And he came all the way to the mountains to share the magic of Christmas with all of us. We were so pleased with Duane and plan to have him back again!

Duane is top notch. He has exactly the look we were shooting for at our event - classy vintage Father Christmas. There isn't a hint of department store Santa in his look or demeanor. We hosted our Christmas event in a castle and Duane was a perfect fit for us in every way. He was great with the kids and parents alike so we hope to have him back every Christmas for years to come.

Loved having this Santa he was the real deal!!
Everyone was very impressed .. great with the kids … thank you!!

We've been using Duane for the last 3 years for our annual breakfast with Santa. He is wonderful to work with and the children love him. Highly recommend.

We hired Duane Paul for our Christmas party Dec. 2018, and he was phenomenal! Everyone enjoyed this Santa, and we definitely want to hire him again. He was so great with the children and he looks sooooooooooo Real! Thank you again, Santa Duane Paul.

Noreine and John

We had Duane at an outdoor Christmas Event on 12/8/18 ....a very cold day......in any case....Duane made the day.....a great interactive Santa.....with a great work ethic.....the children had a blast, and I would most certainly use Duane again. The Celtic Cove Flushing NY

Interacted with our customers and took pictures with kids at our dealership

Santa Duane came full-bearded, photo-opt ready, mingled and jingled. He had grown out his full beard ready for Christmas. On time, curteous and ready to serve your Holiday cheering occasion. You will not be disappointed with your choice, I promise!

From beginning to end the transaction and communication was great! He arrived on time, pleasant to deal with and most of all the kids had a great time! Highly recommend

Duane came to our school for a breakfast with santa event that yields about 500 people every year. He was phenomenal to work with and kids and parents loved him. We will definitely be bringing him back next year!

Duane was a fabulous santa! I was very impressed with how well this service went. looking forward to hiring him next year.

We recently had the pleasure of booking Duane as the Santa Claus for our restaurant in Westchester’s annual Santa Brunch. He did a fantastic job! He took many wonderful photos with all of the children and was the perfect additional to our holiday brunch. We would recommend him to anyone looking to book a Santa Claus for the holiday season.

Duane was amazing!
The guests & the kids loved him. If I'll do another event like this Duane is my guy :)
Highly recommended!

Duane Paul provided an amazing Santa experience for my childrens school. He met with 250+ students and all of their families and did a wonderful job engaging with our audience during the entire event. I highly recommend Duane Paul for your next event!

We can't say thank you enough to Duane Paul for being Santa at our party. He arrived early and even looks like Santa in his street clothes! He was fantastic with our group - both adults and children, his Santa suit was gorgeous and his demeanor was cheerful. Our event ran a little long, and he stayed without a single complaint. We will hire him again next year without hesitation. Thank you, Duane!

I recently hired Duane Paul to make an appearance as Elvis for my holiday party and he was fantastic. He looked perfect and really entertained the crowd. He was very professional in setting up the details of the appearance and he arrived early. He really enjoys what he does and is a lovely person as well. The party was a huge success because of him. I will definitely book Duane Paul again for future parties.
