How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking as early as possible.
Holiday dates fill up quickly, especially evenings and weekends.
If youโre hoping for a specific day, longer visit, or peak holiday timing, earlier is always better. ๐
Is there a minimum booking time?
Yes, there is a minimum booking time.
The minimum visit length for Holy City Santa is 1 hour. That said, longer bookings offer better value. As the visit length increases, the hourly rate decreases, making extended visits a great option for larger events, parties with multiple families, or businesses hosting ongoing festivities.
If youโre planning a bigger celebration or want Santa to spend more time with guests, booking a longer visit is the best way to maximize both time and value. ๐ ๐
Where does Smiley Santa travel?
Holy City Santa is based in Summerville, South Carolina, and happily travels throughout the Lowcountry.
This includes areas such as Charleston, Mount Pleasant, West Ashley, North Charleston, and surrounding communities. Travel beyond the immediate Lowcountry area may be possible as well, depending on availability.
For locations that are farther away, an additional travel fee may apply. If you're unsure whether your location is within range, feel free to reach out and we'll be happy to confirm.
Is Holy City Santa ok with pets?
Yes! Holy City Santa is happy to be around friendly pets and loves including them in holiday moments, especially for photos. We just ask that pets are well-behaved and supervised during the visit to ensure a safe and joyful experience for everyone.
If you have a pet with special needs or concerns, feel free to mention it in your booking request so we can plan accordingly. ๐พ๐
