About
Yes, I can be "Your Santa" for any event you may have, holiday parties, corporate functions, advertising, tree lightings, parade, christmas story reading, etc. I have my own plush red Santa suit (NO padding needed), as well as a couple of different Santa variations, Summer Santa and Toy Workshop Santa. I have been a practicing Santa of varying degrees for a long time, commercially since 2007. I attended the International University of Santa Claus, aka: School4Santas ("Behind the Red Suit - The Business of Being Santa"). A certificate of insurance & background check will be provided upon request.
I am proud to say I am a member of "The Red Suit Society" and "FORBS" - Fraternal Order of Real Bearded Santas. Both organizations promote the positive image of Santa in fostering the spirit of Christmas and the love of children first and foremost. I, as Santa am Santa 24/7 in season, 365 days of the year in Santa regalia or whenever a believer perceives me to be Santa Claus. As a Real Bearded Santa I have the honor of sharing the Santa experience with adults and of course the children all year long. I always have a great time just doing even little things where people can see me. As what one woman said to me while at Wal-mart,
"Do people just naturally smile when they see you?" I replied,
"Why yes they do; isn't it wonderful?"

Private Party
in Princeton, NJ
on 12/09/2010
"Santa Chester was the REAL DEAL! One woman in our party said that when she saw him she almost cried - she thought she was a kid again. I have never seen such a perfect Santa in all my life. If you told me that Santa is real after all, I'd believe it. I know, because he came to my party last night.
Thanks, Santa Chester!!

"Santa Chester was excellent! We used him to hand out favors at our wedding and we couldn't have asked for anything better. He went above and beyond what we had expected. Very personable and LOOKS great! He had a great Santa chair and wore a stubnning "old world" santa suit! Our guests are still talking about how wonderful he was (I think the adults liked it more than the childen)! I think it's impossible to meet Santa Chester without feeling the true spirit of Christmas afterwards.

Christmas Party

"Santa was exceptional! He left a lasting impression on the children and adults at my party - exuding true joy and the spirit of Christmas, and the importance of family and friends. Prior to the event, he had great communication with me over the phone, accomodated all of my requests, arrived a few minutes early even after a snow storm covered us with over 12" of snow, and was just a hit - funny, engaging! As far as looks... impeccable. You won't find a better looking Santa, gorgeous suit, real beard - and a truly joyful soul that really shines. He was perfect and we were very, very happy he joined us. We want him part of our tradition every year. "

"Santa Chester was a great hit at our veterinary hospital's "Christmas in July" event. He was professional, upbeat, and unflappable and seemed to truly enjoy the animals and our clients. Visually he is the perfect Santa. He looks fantastic in photos. We highly recommend him and hope we can have him back during the actual Christmas season."

Christmas Party

"This was a high end party for adults ranging in age from 28 to 80. Santa was beyond perfect. He was beautiful and had the perfect personality, just the right amount of humor. All Fives do not score high enough for Santa Chester.
I would definately use him again."

"If you are looking for the true Santa look and the hardest worker around book Santa Chester.
This Santa looks amazing. We run a studio portrait business and many of the children who had appointments actually proclaimed 'Oh, it's the real Santa'.
Santa Chester is professional and accommodating. He clocked almost 8 hours with one short break (and we do not recommend doing this to him but we had so many kids we got backed up and he didn't budge from the Santa chair). He was a total trooper and helped our business have a hugely successful experience.
