Response from Santa Rick:
Thank you, Krista! We really love visiting with you and appreciate you including us in your holiday party.
Merry Christmas!
Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus
We received so many heartfelt words of thanks from parents during our Santa visit event. Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus have the most natural, but magical, way of interacting with children. They have so many tricks up their sleeves for shy and nervous children, and were able to make magic happen so parents could get photo keepsakes. They cared about making sure every child had visited as our time wound down. I was overjoyed with the entire event, and felt proud that they were in my shop helping my customers make holiday memories.

Thank you, Kerry. We loved visiting with everyone. Your store is wonderful and we met so many great families!
Have a Merry Christmas!

If authenticity is what you are looking for look no further. Mr. & Mrs. Claus are more than you’d ever expect. The mannerisms in which they provide is unmatched, the way they converse with all the children specifically using their names as well as the Childrens elves names is flawless. They will make believers out of even the most skeptical. They can answer any questions sent their way. When they come I even believe that I am hosting THE REAL SANTA AND MRS. CLAUS. We feel more than blessed to have had them at our special Christmas party. Thank you so much for making our day extra extra special.-Valerie-

Hi Valerie!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We had so much fun visiting with you and the children are a joy to be with. We hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
Be thoughtful. Be kind. Be Merry.

Santa Rick came to our corporate Christmas party where employees brought in their families, and he was by far the best Santa we have ever had! Our employees have not stopped raving about how wonderful Santa Rick was. He read a book to some children and showed them pictures of the North Pole & reindeer on his phone. He turned older children who were on the fence about Santa back into believers. Numerous employees have already requested that we book him for next year! 5+ stars.

Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus were a hit. Wonderful experience for the children and adults alike. Could not be happier with our time spent with them. The stories were wonderful and made for great memories for the children. We look forward to next year’s visit already!!
Merry Christmas!
We had Santa Rick & Mrs. Claus for our martial arts school Christmas party last year! He was absolutely top notch. They read a book, gave gifts that we provided, and provided a really authentic Christmas experience. I highly recommend!

Mr & Mrs. Claus have been visiting our kiddos for the past six years and it’s something that all of us very much look forward too. They are phenomenal with our children and we just adore them so very much. Our oldest is 14 and it’s been a couple of years since a friend from school told him about Santa. He still is very fond of them visiting and thanked us as parent for making Christmas that much more special. I can’t recommend them enough!
Mrs. Claus, Santa Claus
We have booked santa Rick two years in a row now. He is great with kids of all ages! I would highly recommend.

Both Mr and Mrs Claus did a great job. Very patient and took the time to make sure the children were comfortable and had a wonderful time. Thank you

Our entire pack of cubscouts was enthralled with Mr and Mrs Clause. They are by far the best around for a real experience of meeting Santa at your event or party. Can't thank them enough for coming to see us every year.
This was our second year using Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus and they were great again. They arrived on time, were very engaging with the crowd, and their look is on point! We will continue to use them. Thank you!
Mrs. Claus, Santa Claus

This was the second year we had Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus for our company Christmas Party. Santa and the Mrs. are a great team. The make each kid feel special, listen attentively and answer the innocent questions from the mouths of babes! Santa also has a great singing voice......Their attire is great and they did'nt get worn down by the incredibly long line of kids and family that wanted a chance to get their picture taken with Santa and their chance to tell Santa exactly what they wanted fir Christmas. Do yourself a favor and next party call hem they were superb! Nancy T. Tewksbury, MA

Mr & Mrs Claus have been visiting our kids for 5 years now and it’s one of my most cherished family traditions. They are exceptional and always bring the magic, even our teenage son still looks forward to their visits.

Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus have been visiting our cub scouts for several years now and always do a great job. They go with the flow, and have plenty of material. I like how they create the world of the North Pole with stories and quirky details. Highly recommend.
Holiday Entertainment, Mrs. Claus, Santa Claus
Santa and Mrs. Claus came to our home this year as my 4 year old in all past years did not do well with the pressured environment of waiting in line to meet Santa. Then when you get the chance it’s so rushed it just took away from the experience. Having them come to our home was a game changer! For the first time she did not cry and felt much more comfortable, and her baby brother did well too! Mrs. Claus and Santa came equipped with all the tips and tricks to engage the kids at their own comfort level, and even sat down on the floor with them to read them a book and sing songs. Highly highly recommend! Will be hiring them for all the years to come.
The children (and adults) had such a wonderful time with Santa and Mrs. Claus. We look forward to host them next year!
Mrs. Claus, Santa Claus
Authentic, engaging and very realistic. Mrs. Claus got kids to relax and not be afraid. She was Awesome! Great people Will definitely use them next year

The Rosa Restaurant in downtown Portsmouth NH had the opportunity to hire Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus for our first Santa breakfast. The guest that came for the breakfast had a wonderful time with Santa and Mrs. Claus. They sang, told stories, walked around the room and said hi to guest. We will differently look to hire them for next year.
Thanks so much

Santa Nick has come to our Cub Scout holiday party several years now and always does a great job. We had it outdoors for COVID safety which made it a little chaotic by the time he arrived but he and Mrs Claus managed to keep the kids attention with a story, handed out pinewood derby kit presents and snap some photos with good cheer. Will be happy to have them back again next year.

We had Santa Rick and Mrs. Clause at our meet and photo shoot at Beans and Greens Farm Saturday, November 27th, 2021. Our Santa couple arrived early and entered our store in full swing and ho ho hos and really brought the Christmas Cheer with them. Our guests were so delighted! We had scheduled a 4 hour time slot with Mr. and Mrs. Clause and we had a very well attended event with over 100 families. What we were most impressed with was that Santa Rick and Mrs. Clause took the time to engage each child, made them feel welcomed and not scared, and DID NOT rush the children through. We were able to accommodate all of the children and families in the 4 hour time slot and they were all very happy and satisfied. Many comments were overheard that that was the Best Santa and Mrs. Clause they had ever seen, and one older child was heard to say "You told me last year Santa wasn't real, but he was here today!" An amazing job and presence was given to us from Santa Rick and Mrs. Clause. We would HIGHLY recommend booking them for your next holiday event, and very much look forward to having them both back again next year for our holiday event at Beans and Greens Farm in Gilford, NH.

Santa and Mrs. Claus were an amazing duo! Santa entered in a manner one expects Santa would, being both bold and merry! Santa and Mrs. Claus filled the atmosphere with joy immediately upon arrival. Anyone they interacted with left with an uncontrollable smile. Flawless performance by both Santa and Mrs. Clause. Definitely will have them return next year.

This is our 3rd Christmas with Santa and Mrs. Claus and we are so totally appreciative of the magic they create with our kids. Mr & Mrs Claus came to read a bedtime story to our babies this year and shared fun facts about the North Pole and everything Christmas. They do an incredible job and we are grateful they are now part of our family Christmas tradition.
This is the 2nd year Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus have come to our Family Christmas Gathering! They both interacted so well with everyone. They filled the hour with stories, games, talking with the kids about their interest, and pictures. My family cant imagine a Christmas Gathering without Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus in the future.
Santa 🎅 Rick and Mrs. Claus surprised and delighted all the residents on their second visit to the Laffayette House on December 21st. He remembered the residents names and answered all their questions. Most of their questions were about the busy days ahead for Santa, the condition of the reindeer and whether the elves were making a mess.
Thank you so so much.

Response from Santa Rick:
Thank you, William! We really enjoyed seeing everyone again and look forward to more surprise visits.

Santa Rick was very accommodating and was so very fun. The Cub Scouts had a great time, our pack has been looking for a great Santa for some time. Santa Rick is heads and tails the best Santa we have EVER had visit the pack. We highly recommend him, and let’s not forget Mrs. Claus she was equally great! Thank you so much.

Santa and mrs Claus came out to our family Christmas party and it was a delightful experience! They fit the parts perfectly!! Both of them are GORGEOUS.. entertaining the little ones and pictures upon pictures they were absolutely amazing.. there is something magical when a child sees Santa and mr and mrs Claus did not disappoint...even coming up with the idea to send a “shout out” to my son stationed overseas... truly a awesome memory to have and will hire again for some family fun!!
We had a larger than normal group of kids this year and they did a great job with them! Keeping them engaged, talking with them one on one, singing, it was amazing. We had a truly magical time with Santa and Mrs. Claus. HIGHLY recommend them!
Santa Rick and Mrs Claus were excellent! Very warm, friendly and entertaining. Young and old enjoyed them.
Roberta
We had Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus surprise our kids again this year at the family Christmas party. To say it was incredible, would be an understatement. I am so grateful for how fun and magical they make their visits.
Santa had a card trick for our 9 year old son and a photo album of pictures that Mrs. Claus took through the year (pics of elves, reindeer etc).
They sat and talked with the kids, gave them gifts (we provided) and knew every last detail about them.
Incredibly professional and just perfection. So grateful for this new tradition - couldn’t recommend them enough!
Our event included a delivery to an outdoor common area and then time with Santa inside. Great hosts, both Mr & Mrs Claus. Easy to work with on our end, fabulous with the children. Will hire again! ho, ho, ho!

Santa Rick and Mrs. Claus were amazing! The children and adults alike were entertained, thrilled, an in awe! Our expectations were far exceeded! Thank you so very much!

We had planned a pancake fundraiser for the Laffayette House in Portsmouth. A group home for 12 developmentally disabled adults and the staff that looks after them. One of the residents is particularly obsessed with Santa so I googled “Santa 🎅 & Portsmouth NH” on the morning of the event. Google turned up GigSalad and GigSalad gave us Santa Rick and a few other Santa’s. Luckily Santa 🎅 Rick and Mrs Claus 🤶 had space in their schedule to make a grand entrance to the home and were the absolute highlight for all of the residents and their younger relatives.
In short Santa Rick and Mrs Claus were our best introduction to GigSalad we could ever imagine.
Thank you very much from all the friends at:

This was the most amazing experience - for the children & the adults! Santa Rick was completely involved with what the children had to say and he held their attention for the complete hour. He read The Night Before Christmas by request with great enthusiasm and entertained with his own stories. We had 3 little ones who were pretty skeptical about Santa. Within 15 minutes 2 of them had joined Santa's circle on the floor, and with the help of wonderful Mrs. Claus, the 3rd joined in shortly after. The children's great grandmother was present and we got wonderful pictures of her with Mr. & Mrs. Claus and 14 of her great grandkids. Santa posted for a multitude of other family pictures ho-ho-ing the whole time. We couldn't have been more pleased. Thank you Santa Rick & Mrs. Claus!

Can't say enough positive things about Santa Rick & Mrs. Claus. They both really make the holiday come alive. Santa's hohoho's and conversations with the children was magical. Even thought we had a love seat for him to sit on, he sat on the floor with the children reading stories and talking to them all. They were the highlight of the party. Thank you both and Merry Christmas ! I will certainly contact you for next year.

Santa Rick was amazing. I could not have expected such a perfect, real, kind, warm, fun, funny, magical Santa. He was just the best. Was able to name the kids upon arrival, warmed them right up to him. Not pushy. Gave kids time to come to him. Is a natural and so genuine. He was able to bring Mrs. Claus who was also AMAZING. They were so at ease, flexible and fit right in. And stayed in character every minute! The kids are still talking about it! Actually ... so are the adults. Thank you so much.
I wish there was a way to give Santa stick and Mrs.Claus a 10 Star review. We have an 8 year old son and almost 2 year old daughter - our son has been asking a lot of questions this year so we opted to keep the magic alive with Santa Rick.
It was everything we hoped for and more. Our son was over the moon our daughter was scared and they both were SO good with getting her to warm up to them. Patient, professional, impeccably dressed and very caring - had all the details about our children memorized upon arriving. He sat and talked with our son and daughter for quite some time. It was incredible, just perfect, as parents, it’s everything we hoped for at Christmas. He/they helped make memories that we will cherish forever. 🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻❤️

Santa & Mrs. Claus came to McDonald's! They were great! I enjoyed working with both of them, Santa Rick was the perfect Santa Claus! All of the kids loved him and my employees enjoyed him coming too!
Santa and Mrs. Claus put on an awesome show for our family gathering! The kids (and adults) were impressed by the magic tricks, story, and time spent taking pictures!

About
Being kids at heart, we have always believed in the magic of Christmas. We take great joy in seeing children interact with Santa; sharing their wishes, stories, and dreams. Santa Rick has worked in the portrait industry for 18 years working with children of all ages to capture memories for their families. Before that, he worked in the party industry where he learned to entertain children with balloon animals, storytelling, and light magic tricks. Mrs. Claus has 10 years of experience in education with five of those in special education. She engages children with storytelling and is the perfect buffer for children who may be a little shy to see Santa.
As a Santa and Mrs. Claus team, we blend the skills from our past work experience to share our love of the Christmas Season with young and old. We are available for business events, private parties, school and non-profit events, in-home visits, business promotions, nursing home visits, and more!
