Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Thank you so much for your kind words. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I am a photographer and I host a Santa event each year. Unfortunately, last minute, we found out our booked Santa had the stomach flu.
Santa Frank graciously stepped in at the VERY LAST minute and saved the day for me.
He was kind and attentive to all the children. Just a really kind, great guy.
I would recommend him for any professional or in home event. He will do an amazing job.
Jolly Old Frank Nicholas was absolutely wonderful. He took time with each little one, posed for pics, and recited Twas The Night Before Christmas which they loved. I highly recommend him. Hope to see him next year.

Jolly Old Frank Nicholas did an amazing job for an event at a preschool! We are planning on hiring him again next year!
We will definitely be using Jolly Old Frank Nicholas for many years to come! He is friendly and patient with the kids and fantastic at answer Big questions! He didn’t rush to get out the door and was more than happy to do as many pictures as we wanted. He also is the real deal an will leave your kids with no doubt about Santa!

Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Amy,
Thank you for your kind words. Your hospitality was amazing and so was your family.
Thanks again,
Frank
The kids got to ask him Santa questions, he had a great sense of humor and told Santa jokes. We had perfect individual pictures, group pictures and some great pics with the kids pulling Santa's beard (gently of course). Loved having him come to the house and being with our grandkids.
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Robyn,
It was my pleasure. Thank you for your kind words. To be a child's Christmas memory is such an honor.
Thank you,
Frank
Frank did such an AMAZING job at our work holiday party! The kids absolutely loved taking pictures with Santa and he spent time walking around to engage with everyone. He really made our holiday party special. He was very authentic and it was fun to have him there!
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Callie,
Your work holiday party was such an amazing event. And you made this Santa feel like a rock star. A dressing room, pitchers of water, and you hospitality was 5 Star. It made me want to be an employee and bring my family. Lol. Thanks so much and hope we do it again next year.
All my best,
Frank
would of liked more energy and more interaction
We hired Jolly Old Frank Nicholas for a 2-hour holiday open house at a historic home museum and he did an amazing job! His appearance is spot-on and he conducts himself so professionally but also has great interactions with visitors. I would highly recommend him for another event.
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Erica,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I had a blast with you and your guests. Your hospitality was amazing. Looking forward to April so I can take my family to your historic home.
Thanks again,

Jolly Old Frank Nicholas showed up at our holiday open house at First Missouri Bank. He was amazing. He was on time, amazing with the kids big and small, and was knowledgable about what toys the kids were asking about. He was even able to make conversation about the specific toys (names other Thomas the trains and asked about Sir Topham Hat etc. Jolly Old Frank was perfect for our corporate event! We can’t wait to welcome him back next year.
Everyone loved Frank Nicholas and we were very pleased with his performance and service.
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Lettiann,
Thank you so much for those kind words. I truly have as much fun as the kids, and the kids at heart. Thanks again,
Frank
If you want great photo ops, he's your Santa. He did a great job. His laugh was wonderful.
What impressed us the most was his knowledge of what each child is learning at school at their specific age. 4 different elementary school believers left more certain of Santa then ever.
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Brad,
Thank you so much for the kind words. I have as much fun as the kiddos. I hope all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Jolly Oldl Frank Nicholas was the best Santa I have ever had. He was funny and great with all of the kids and took a lot of time to take a ton of great pictures. He was definitely 5 star and we will have him again next year!
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Thank you so much Tara. I can't tell you how much fun I had spending time with your family. When the entire family is such good sports as yours, it makes my job easy. I really look forward to seeing everyone next year. All my best.
Jolly Old Frank Nicholas was fantastic! He arrived on schedule (actually early!) and was great with kids of all ages! He has a real white beard and mustache (not dyed where it looks yellow) and looks very authentic! We will definitely use him again!
We had Santa with our five children from ages 4-16 and one was a semi believer. By the time Santa left we had an actual count of five believers. Yes, even the 16 year old was excited and said Santa was so much fun.
Santa interacted with each child individually and also as a group. He was a perfect Santa.
He even had a real beard. I will recommend him over and over again. Our best Santa ever! And we have done this for 16 years. We love you Santa. Even the 6 adults had fun.
Jolly Old Frank Nicholas's pre-Christmas visit with our family could not have been more special. He was great with our toddlers, older children, even their Grandmother. We would highly recommend him to anyone who is considering engaging the real Santa Claus for any event. He is a true professional.
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Thank you. I had such a wonderful time with your family. I wish I could express the honor I feel to be a child's memory of Santa Claus. It's something I don't take lightly. Thanks again,

Santa was easy to responsive, easy to book, on time and as expected. The kids (and parents!) were excited to see him and appreciated the time he took with each one. Thank you!
Response from Jolly Old Frank Nicholas:
Thank you so much. I had as much fun as the kids. Merry Christmas
This Santa was Awesome. We planned that he would show up as a surprise and deliver Pinewood derby kits to the cub scout pack. The kids were so excited and loved getting pictures with him. Everything worked out perfect.
