Overview
Santa welcomes children and adults to a climate of Christmas, bringing joy and happiness to all. A genuine Santa is one that is real, no fake beards or colored hair. So, what you see is my natural beard and facial hair and an image with a high degree of likeness to our beloved Santa. I offer a great disposition with children and adults and ability to communicate the message of Christmas cheer and joy in English and Spanish fluently. Whatever your event is planned to be, I will be flexible and do whatever it takes to please and bring joy to all. I am a member of IBRBS (world's largest organization of real-bearded Santas), had full background checks, and I am fully insured for liability.

A great experience with Santa. He showed up early and his costume and appearance were as real as it gets. Very personable and attentive with the kids and their grandparents. We received compliments from our clients on what a great Santa we hired.

Santa Richard was amazing- he even stayed a little longer to help a few guests get a photo. He was great with the kids & so kind.

Thank you Erin, you are very kind and a beautiful young lady. I truly enjoyed your event. But remember that like snowflakes, Christmas and holiday memories gather and dance—each beautiful, unique, and gone too soon.
Richard is kind, easy-going, and jolly. A perfect addition to our Christmas party.

Santa Richard hosted our Cocoa & Cookies with Santa, an event open to the public but geared towards autistic children. Santa Richard looked perfect and was extremely patient and gentle. We will absolutely be booking him for as many events as we can next year. Thank you, Santa Richard!!

Response from Santa Claus Richard:
Hi Trevor, thank you very much for the review.
I would definitely recommend Richard for any holiday party with Santa you may have, he was an absolute delight with the kids and adults in attendance. He was delightful reading a Christmas story to the kids and letting them sit on his lap to tell him what they wanted for Christmas. 10/10 We will definitely use Richard again next year!

Response from Santa Claus Richard:
Thank you, it was very kind of you to write such a nice review. I enjoyed meeting your staff and the wonderful children.
Santa was the best addition to our fun wedding reception! I have no complaints and everything was perfect except Santa wasn’t wearing his belt!
Holiday Entertainment, Santa Claus
Response from Santa Claus Richard:
So sorry about not wearing the belt. I felt that it was more important to not let you down due to a broken belt. The good news is that I now have an awesome belt for your future celebrations.
Thank you for saving the day! You were an excellent Santa and did a wonderful job.

About
Having lived in the North Pole, I learned the importance and meaning of Christmas. Nicholas: The Real Santa Claus. The legend of Santa Claus can be traced back hundreds of years to a monk named St. Nicholas. It is believed that Nicholas was born sometime around 280 A.D. in Patara, near Myra in modern-day Turkey.
My mission is to bring back the feeling of Christmas through the impersonation of Santa Claus. I want to make children happy and fully convey the spirit of Christmas. You will find nothing fake about me. A real beard and hair resembling Santa. A skill and fluency in the English and Spanish languages to fully convey the spirit of Christmas to children and adults.
Additional Booking Notes
