Reviews:

* The first time you hire Santa, the first judgment is based on looks (at least for me). Well, right off the bat, that judgment call was perfect! Not only was he the best Santa we've ever worked with, Mrs. Claus was decked out and perfectly-adorned as well.
After the first judgment on appearance, it only got better. The interaction with the kids is truly awe-inspiring, the background, the gifts, and the "look" in the pictures that are taken are really like North Pole magic. I can't imagine ever doing business with another Santa as long as our organization continues. While this 'is' a business for him, you can also tell that there is a calling that has been fulfilled...with hearts of gold! I cannot offer a high enough rating.

*For the last 3 years, Ace & TJ's Grin Kids has hired Santa Steve for our annual Breakfast with Santa. From the moment Santa Steve enters the room he brings an aura of genuine warmth and love. He can truly turn the hardest of unbelievers into marveling youngsters with the help of his trusted assistant, Mrs. Claus. Together, with the magic of today's technology the two work flawlessly to ensure every child receives a true individual experience with Santa. Adults alike are also impressed with the realness of the experience.
For anyone considering the hiring Santa Steve for their event, be assured you are hiring the BEST of the BEST. He has always arrived ahead of time and has performed beyond our expectation. Further, he is ever conscience of his overall appearance for each and every person. Yes, his white beard is real and well groomed. His red suit is luxurious and his boots are authentically complete with Jingle Bells. He travels with over 100 fresh pairs of white gloves and changes them often between visitors!
I can speak from personal experience the Santa Steve has a pure heart and his love for children and adults alike shows through him! Santa Steve will leave you and your guests with the joy and magic of Christmas in your heart!
