Looking for a fun and entertaining welcome act for your wedding, corporate party, grand opening, or event? Have Louis and Geraar welcome your guests: two former court jesters who, after a rather unfortunate dismissal, now offer their services to the much-appreciated common folk.
And they’re actually pretty good at it.
A royal welcome with a healthy dose of humor! Louis and Geraar know exactly how to do things by the book. A proper bow, a courteous greeting, taking a coat, showing guests the way, or welcoming someone in their very own unique way: these gentlemen do it all. Well… most of the time.
Because behind their dapper appearance and magnificent costumes lies, above all, a healthy dose of humor. They love to engage with guests, react to whatever’s happening, and quickly turn an ordinary reception into something people will talk about for a long time to come.
That makes this footman act particularly well-suited as a reception act, welcome act, or playful entertainment.
The footmen can be booked for, among other things:
•
Weddings
• Corporate parties and staff parties
• Receptions and welcome events
• Openings and official occasions
• Anniversaries and special celebrations
• Festivals and events
• Shopping centers and public activities
• Family parties and other festive occasions
What do the footmen do?
The specifics can be fully tailored to your event. For example:
• Welcoming guests in a regal manner
• A courteous greeting and deep bow
• Taking coats
• Escorting guests to their seats
• Providing directions and information
• Chatting with visitors
• Responding spontaneously to guests and situations
• Adding a touch of humor during the reception
• Escorting or entertaining guests during a cocktail hour or reception
Do you have something special in mind? Let us know. Louis and Geraar would be happy to help you plan it.
Solo or as a duo?
The footman act can be booked with as few as one performer, but let’s be honest: with two footmen, there’s even more room for interaction and humor.
Louis and Geraar can complement each other, play off one another, and welcome guests together. While one is attending to one guest, the other can already be busy with the next. For larger groups or events where the reception is a key part of the evening, we therefore recommend two footmen.
The price listed is for approximately 60 minutes with one actor. Price starting at €295, excluding 9% VAT and travel expenses/travel time compensation.
Want to book them for longer, hire two footmen, or tailor the act entirely to your event? We’d be happy to provide a customized proposal.
Also available as a photo act
Louis and Geraar aren’t just a reception act. They can also be booked as a playful photo act. The footmen will bring a beautiful golden frame and take photos with your guests in their own unique style. The photos will be delivered digitally afterward.
A lovely memento of the evening—and, at the same time, an extra opportunity for the footmen to interact with your guests.
A warm welcome immediately sets the tone for an event. Louis and Geraar ensure that this tone is not only hospitable but also cheerful and surprising.
This is also evident from client feedback. The act has 17 reviews with an average rating of 10/10.
One client described the duo as a “first-class welcoming committee” and wrote that Louis and Geraar make guests feel more than welcome. Another client noted that the footmen created a relaxed atmosphere, took the initiative, and did so with a good sense of humor.
And that’s exactly what Louis and Geraar are here for: welcoming guests, breaking the ice, and making sure the party really gets started right at the front door.

Louis and Geraar are a fantastic duo who make people feel more than welcome. They stand out, are funny and have been a fantastic addition to our get-together. Thank you lackeys of conviviality!

For years we have been working with Entertainmenthuis during our events. They always do a great job and it is always organized down to the last detail. For every budget they can come up with something that fits the style you are looking for. You can really rely on them!
, Susanne
As Kindcentrum Sittard, we have enjoyed your dedication and motivation during our Saint Nicholas and Christmas festivities! Thanks a lot
, Rosanne
Every year we hold the House of Santa in cooperation with Entertainment House. They pull out all the stops and the decoration is done down to the last detail. You know what you have with them and therefore the cooperation has always been very nice. Santa and Christmas elf always stay neatly in their roles. They have a chat for every child. Real professionals!

Entertainment house paid a visit at our elementary school with St. Nicholas and his Pieten. Not only do they look top-notch and well-groomed, but their arrival is a great celebration as they "carry" the Sinterklaas morning. They play into the Sinterklaas news, dance and sing songs themselves. They also take a piece of presentation out of the equation in a natural way. For us, no other Saint and Pete.

We want to thank the lackeys Louis and Gerard for their efforts during the wedding of last Wednesday. The guests in attendance thought it was really great and had stomach aches from laughing, said the bride. You guys are really great

Santa's house was super fun, for my daughter of almost 3. Beautiful decoration and a perfect location. Santa was super! My compliments to everyone who has worked on it. The animals in the crib are always nice to take a look
, Diane
Such a nice Sinterklaas and his helpers I have never encountered before. Full of attention for children but also for the dads, moms, grandpas and grandmas.
