Santa Wade came in clutch for my martial arts school this year after the Santa we had used for years couldn't make our annual Santa's Workshop event. He is super easy to communicate with and very responsive to emails. Setting up the event was a breeze and his rates are more than fair. The day of our event he confirmed his arrival time and even showed up a few minutes early. He got right to work interacting with the kids. He even joined them in eating some cookies. He kept the kids smiling and engaged and our pictures came out great. He also had answers prepared for all of the kid's questions (like, "where is your sleigh?"). At the end of our event, we got a staff picture with him and he even posed in a martial arts stance with us. We'll definitely be inviting him back to our event next year. Thank you Santa Wade!

Thank you Guillermo. We had a wonderful time at your event.
If you happen to need Santa & Mrs Claus at times other than Christmas, i.e. Christmas in July, we're available.
We enjoy passing out smiles and hugs at all times of the year.
Wishing you and your family/friends the Warmest of Christmas Wishes this year.
Santacerely,
Santa Wade & Mrs Claus
I want to tell y'all about Santa. The REAL Santa. And yes, he is real. I know, because I met him in person at the breakfast bar at a Hampton Inn in Austin last weekend. He and Mrs. Claus were cheerful and patient, as we took pictures and talked with him. Mind you, this was not a planned meeting. He was just having breakfast, and took time for us .. and all those around him. I watched as children flocked to him for a moment with the Head Elf .. and all the while, he was just what you always imagined Santa to be - because he IS .. this IS the REAL one!! Thank you Santa, for a beautiful moment that we'll remember forever.
Mrs. Claus, Santa Claus
Thank you so much for the excellent performance! I highly recommend Santa Wade.

It was such a pleasure to meet all the children and watch their creativity as they decorated the cookies. Imaginations were wild and creative with frostings and sprinkles as they decorated the cookies.
Thank you for letting Santa participate in this wonderful event and get pictures with the Kiddos and Staff!
Great job everyone!

Santa Wade was very attentive to my grandson, from singing him "happy birthday" to handing Zane his presents
Santa Wade made Zane's Christmas birthday a very special day that he won't forget!! I would absolutely recommend him to all family and friends!

Santa & Mrs Claus did such a wonderful job! From the first phone call I received from Santa, I was wow'd! They were a great help in advising on ways that would make the experience go smoothly, and were also very flexible to accommodate the schedule & activities we preferred. We had 5 kids in attendance, from a shy 4 year old to an inquisitive 8 year old, & the Claus's did a great job easing ones out of their shell & ensuring everyone got the time, attention & answers they needed. When parents were nervous about questions being asked, Santa & Mrs Claus were calm & collected. They worked great as a team, helping the kids be patient waiting for their turn on Santa's lap. I feel 1 hour was great for our small group, & would recommend a longer reservation if there were more kids to ensure there is enough time for activities & individual time for each child with Santa. The kids were a lot more talkative than we expected, wanting to share and show Santa all the things they were proud of. Having Mrs. Claus there too really helped add to the authenticity, and made the kids feel that much closer to the experience of the magic of Christmas in getting to meet her for the first time. I highly recommend Santa Wade, and hope to book them for years to come! 😊

After our event and working with Santa Wade Wells, I fully believe that he is the real Santa and that Wade Wells is just his current cover name. Our event was shooting promotional content for social media, and he was so helpful with shooting and went above and beyond to make sure every detail and scene was absolutely perfect! He is an absolute pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with him in the future!

Thank you Lydia for the review. It was a pleasure to be your Santa this year. The hugs from the kids were amazing. Looks like some 'socks and underwear' might be on the list this year... ho ho ho
Thank you again and look forward to working with you again.
Santa Wade
They went so far out of their way to help with the babies, help with my husband who is disabled. My granddaughter who is 7 says grandma he was the real Santa. Could not have asked for a better Santa or time. Highly recommend him.
Very prompt, professional, and fun. This is a community event for our elementary school and Santa Wade went above and beyond for the kids.
Thank you for making our event such a great time for the kids.

Response from Santa Wade Wells:
Thank you for the 5 star Review. It would be our pleasure to be your Santa again.
We screwed up on the time, but Santa and Mrs. Clause were amazing and actually turned a mistake on my part to one of the best experiences we've had with a Santa at our party. Highly recommend!!!
Santa and Mrs. Claus were fantastic. We had a Breakfast with Santa event with over 60 families. They were early to event, looked fantastic and were so warm and friendly. I highly recommend them for any event!
Santa Wade was terrific. He sat and took many pictures with the kids and families. We didn't have as many people as anticipated, so there were some slow moments, but he took the initiative and talked with folks and even encouraged some of the shy ones to take pictures. Very professional and courteous.
Santa Claus
He was amazing and super friendly, and he was very patient with the kids. I loved it!! His helper too, super sweet and very polite.
