We could not have asked for a better Santa! He was so fun and very personable! The kids LOVED him!
Santa Ron was an absolute delight. My Grandchildren were over the moon thrilled. He took his time, he interacted with the kids, gave each a little gift and finished off the visit with reading a Christmas story. Well done Santa!
Great experience. Looked very authentic and interacted great with the kids! Would definitely recommend!
Our expectations were exceeded. Santa spent quality time with us. He was funny and sweet. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Santa.

Santa did AMAZING with our son. Our son is shy and Santa did great speaking with him and keeping the conversation going. He read a book, sang Christmas carols and gave him a gift (we supplied). Looking forward to booking him again next year 🎅🏼

A truly wonderful visit from Santa. He arrived on time. Spent time with each child. Got many pictures. Read the night before Christmas. And even helped scare a bear away that was outside when he was leaving. Highly recommend this authentic Santa.

The kids all loved him, and he did a wonderful job! Will definitely use him for future events! Thank you!
He was was engaging, personable, and helpful. The event was a success.
We hired Santa Ron as Santa for our fundraiser. We were very excited, he was super nice and seemed very professional. On the Sunday before our event he told us that he had tested positive for covid and was sending a replacement. Today we find out he is actually playing Santa at a cafe near us and when we spoke last night about the mishap, he informed us he never had covid, just a stomach bug last Sunday. So why was there need for a replacement? Then his replacement showed and it was a nightmare. I will not go into details, but it was very unprofessional and he was dismissed early. This has carried into the next day with his replacement texting us and saying hateful things about us and that we are not good Christian’s and that other personal attacks. We will not be booking through here again due to the fact that this could have been prevented had he been honest with us and we could have booked a different Santa through here. We are very dissapointed.
Santa Ron was just wonderful. He was so great and interactive with kids of all ages from 3 to 73. He read to the kids, provided them with little gifts, and looked the part. We will definitely be using him again. He was also very reasonable with his pricing and availability. Everyone at the party commented how great he was. We can't say enough nice things about him.
Santa Claus Ron visited about 8 homes in our neighborhood last night and he was MAGICAL! His costume is wonderful and vibrant. He read Christmas stories to the kids and took time to really interact. I would recommend him to anyone looking for the "real thing."

We were so happy with Santa Ron, he looked amazing, dressed like the classiest, most realistic Santa! He was so kind and friendly. Communication with him directly prior to our event was so helpful. I could not have asked for a better Santa Claus. He read stories and sang Christmas carols with us, even handed our gifts. It was very special. I would and have already recommended Santa Ron and Gigsalad to several friends. Thank you so much!
Response from Santa Claus Ron:
I am so glad that we were able to make this visit a reality. I had just as much fun as the family.

We had Ron at our church fall fest. He was super friendly and excellent with the kids!
Price Range: $125 for up to 2 hrs// $50 per additional hr.
Languages: English
Ron will arrive, on time, ready to perform. His attitude and professionalism are the best. He provides one, two and three balloon creations. Ron charges nothing extra to provide his own balloon supplies.
If you have seen professional balloon twisters at Disney World or at Dollywood, then you know the quality of work to expect with Ron. His work is Top Notch!
His gift of patter makes him a hit with kids of all ages! Three to Eighty-three.
Ron was adopted at the age of 5. He grew up in a loving Christian family in Waterford, and Davisburg MI. Ron served with the U.S. Army as a Military Policeman for three years and mustered out with an Honorable Discharge. He was stationed at Rhein-Main Air Base, Germany, and Ft. Benning, GA. He moved to the Knoxville area in 2010. He says he wasn't lucky enough to be born in the Knoxville area, but he was smart enough to move!
Ron is a self-taught balloon artist but continues to learn new and better designs.
In addition to his Ballooning and Clowning talents, he has spent 10 years working as a mall Santa in Michigan. He is now available for both home, corporate and parade events in this area.
