Santa Eric makes our annual Christmas Party so special. We're a good of 73 year old friends who have known one another since elementary school. Our parties might not be as wild ... and now they are earier ... but they're still as much fun. I attribute a lot of that to Santa Eric!
He was so great! Communication was amazing! He did great with our 35 sessions! He was accommodating and easy to work with! Will definitely be using him again!
Santa Eric was fantastic—arrived right on time, was kind and patient with the kids at our nonprofit’s event, and even mingled and drank some cocoa after families were done taking pictures. Highly recommend.
Santa Eric and Mrs Claus never disappoint!!
This Santa knows how to work an event without much direction. Very easy to work with and would hire him again!
Santa Eric was so amazing. He captured the attention of the children as well as the adults! The pictures and the book reading was awesome! I can’t wait to have Santa Eric come back to our home next year for Christmas pictures. ☺️
This was our second year with Santa Eric! He was again punctual, professional, and so wonderful with the families in our neighborhood.
Response from Santa Eric:
I enjoy your neighborhood
He was so kind that everyone felt he was the real Santa. As an extra bonus, he brought Mrs. Santa with him. it was a delightful time for all!
Response from Santa Eric:
The pleasure was ours.
Santa Eric was such a hit! We had a group of 5 little ones whom are unseasoned with Santa visits but he and Mrs. Clause made the visit so comfortable and fun. An additional plus, we had a child that is dairy free and we were afraid that she wouldn’t be able to participate in cookie time however Mrs. Clause came prepared with cookie dough that was dairy free/ nut free/ vegan we were over the top impressed and would love to do this again another time!
Response from Santa Eric:
We truly had a great time with all of you.
Everyone had a lovely time. Santa Eric really takes the time to speak with every child and makes the visit very special.
Santa Eric was a joy to work with. He was very professional and the kids absolutely loved him.
Santa Eric was so much fun! He interacted well with our office staff of 15 . We laughed, and laughed and had a great evening, and he even led us in singing Christmas songs. He was super accommodating and gave out the presents to the staff as well.
Santa Eric was present for our cocktail reception and handed out all of the table seating assignments. Everyone loved him and Santa was a great addition to our event! Would definitely recommend!
Santa Eric joined our party as a surprise special guest and delighted everyone. Guests loved taking holiday pics with Eric, and were thrilled when he passed out gifts. Eric was friendly and kind, and mixed with guests and totally raised the tone of our event. Highly recommended!
Response from Santa Eric:
The pleasure was totally mine.
Santa Eric was authentic and fantastic I would definitely recommend him and also book him again !

Santa Eric was great! Was a real great presence at our event and enjoyed by all!
Response from Santa Eric:
I enjoyed it too.
Very professional, looked the part, and was great to deal with. I would definitely recommend him.
Santa was not only great to work with, but was amazing with the kids and had ALLLLLL of the answers that might have popped up by curious minds! He also had "Santa jokes", which are kinda like Dad jokes, but one little girl said her dad's weren't that good. LOL
I will be booking him again for next year!
Eric did a fantastic job. He arrived early and was set to go when our event started. His appearance, personality, and speech was spot on for Santa Clause. He did a great job interacting with guest and creating a friendly atmosphere. He was fun to work with and speak with. We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a professional Santa.
Santa Eric was so amazing! I could not have asked for a better Santa to have at my Santa session. He was so good with the kids and his suit was so beautiful!!!’
Response from Santa Eric:
Thank you so much. It’s always great to work with a professional like you are and I look forward to working with you again.
Santa Eric did a great job for our family event. He we very kind and caring with all our children. We loved the story he did with us. He was professional the entire time he worked with our family. We plan to see him again next year. We highly recommend him
Santa Eric was AMAZING! We absolutely loved spending the day with him and Mrs.Claus.
Highly suggest hiring them!

Even though there were some extra hoops to jump through with social distancing, everyone had a wonderful time.
Santa Eric did a great job under unusual circumstances hosting a virtual visit. He made the children in the audience feel he could see them. He arrived on time, looked every bit the part, was very professional in a most jolly way.
Response from Santa Eric:
Thank you Heidi it was my pleasure and I thoroughly enjoyed the event.
Always a welcome addition to our brewery festivities!
We've worked with Santa Eric before and were thrilled that we were able to work with him again. He was great and provided fantastic Santa work over the hour that we had him. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a Santa.
Santa Eric showed up and had a surprise for us...MRS. CLAUS!!!
They were a huge a success. Our children and parents was very happy!!!!
We hired Santa Eric for our Company Christmas party which was a family event.
He was very punctual and fit the part very well and even brought Mrs. Clause. He accommodated our request and brought two bags with him to put all the gifts we purchased in so he could enter the building with them, as Santa should. All the kids loved him! Out of twenty kids, only two didn't want to see him but we also had two parents say that he was the first Santa that their kids had approached to get their gift and have their picture taken with. A lot of the adults had fun with getting couple/family photos with him too. We will definitely look at booking him again for next year.
Response from Santa Eric:
Thank you for the kind words. We enjoyed being a part of your event.
Would highly recommend!
Response from Santa Eric:
Thank you. It was a joy to be there for your event and you have a great staff.
Our Member's and their guests had a wonderful time meeting and taking pictures with Santa!
Greta Frye & Associates has enjoyed having Santa Eric at our annual client appreciation Christmas event multiple times. This was our 3rd year having Santa Eric at our event, he did not disappoint! Santa Eric is fantastic with children (even screaming little ones) and his Santa suit & chair are very authentic. We recommend Santa Eric for your Christmas events.
Santa was great, as usual, and we can't wait to have him back at the brewery next year!
Santa Eric is definitely the real Santa. My children were happy as well as the parents. He truly put a smile on everyone’s face (well almost everyone, some 1yr olds was skeptical)
THANK YOU SANTA ERIC FROM HEAVENLY HANDS EARLY LEARNING CENTER
Thank you, Santa Eric, from Heavenly Hands Early Learning Center
He did an amazing job. Lovely man.
The kids and parents loved him. Would highly recommend.
Santa Eric was perfect, we couldn’t have asked for a better Santa. He did a great job interacting with children at our charity event. His costume and Mrs Claus were on point. Definitely one of the best Santa’s I have seen.
Santa Eric showed up right on time, and was great getting set up. We've worked with him before, and knew that we'd have quite a pro. He caters to the kids, comes prepared, and really gives it his all. Everyone enjoyed working with him, and we look forward to keeping the partnership going. He's the best!
Santa Eric was a big hit at our event. We plan on using him again next year.
Santa Eric did a great job interacting with our customers and everyone enjoyed his presence. Highly recommend!
Santa was perfect! Adults, kids and pets all had photos taken with him and Eric plays the past perfectly. We're already discussing dates for next year. Best Santa ever!
I had never hired a Santa before & this was for our most important charity event - KidsMas Miracle - taking underpriviledged kids shopping at Target. Not only was Santa Eric accomodating and flexible with potential snow, having to push back by 15 min, he contacted us multiple times before the event and was so responsive & nice. He brought his own Santa amazing velvet chair and a Santa helper. I never knew what a perfect Santa was until I saw him. SO polished, such a regal outfit, great manners and gentle soul with the kids. There was a previous event at same location with another Santa (we made sure the "other" Santa left prior to Santa Eric's arrival) and even the kids said, "oh the other was a 'fake' Santa- you are the real Santa." He even had expensive looking wooken chips with detailed Santa picture on one side and "I am on Santa's Nice List" on the other. We could not have been happier and we will ask for Santa Eric for every year we have our event (which we hope forever :)). Thank you Santa Eric- you were the Magic Christmas Cheer those kids needed
I loved how much time he took with the children. He is an amazing Santa! Thank you for making our event awesome.
Santa was very easy to work with and accomidating to our desires. My only suggestion to him would be since he spends so much time on the story and getting the words and colors into the book... he needs to read it slower and SHOW the pictures to the children.... other than that his magic was great, his naughty/nice meter great, he was great with the children... and adults, very authentic in appearance. I would definitely recommend him.
The entire team was impressed with Santa Eric's interaction with our guests. The individual time and magic he shared with the children added to the excitement of the event. Thanks Santa Eric.
