Enchanting Performance and Impeccable Planning

We recently hosted a corporate reception banquet for 350 people, and I have to say, Mary King, our harpist, was the highlight of the evening. Her performance was simply breathtaking and left everyone in awe.

When Mary started playing, she captivated the audience with her incredible talent. The music flowed beautifully, creating an enchanting atmosphere that perfectly matched the elegance of our event. Her repertoire was diverse, featuring everything from classical pieces to contemporary tunes, each played with such precision and emotion.

Our guests were absolutely mesmerized by the stunning melodies and the way Mary could evoke such a wide range of emotions through her music. Her performance added a touch of sophistication and grace to the banquet, making it an unforgettable experience for everyone.

But Mary wasn't just amazing on stage; she was also fantastic with the planning and logistical aspects of the event. She was highly organized, professional, and attentive to every detail, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Her proactive approach and excellent communication made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable.

We received countless compliments from our guests, who were thoroughly impressed by Mary's talent and professionalism. Her presence truly elevated the event, and we are so grateful for the magical ambiance she created.

If you're looking for a harpist who can deliver an exceptional performance and leave a lasting impression on your guests, I highly recommend Mary King. Her contribution to our corporate reception banquet was truly invaluable.

Mary made the bridal shower magical

Mary was amazing at my future sister in law's Bridgerton- themed tea party bridal shower. She played beautifully and brought all her own equipment including a sound system and seat. She has a wide selection of music that is perfect for any romantic or calm event. She even let the bride try the harp, which was a unique experience! Definitely hire her for your next event if you want a skilled, professional, and pleasant harpist. She was very communicative and clear in terms of booking and scheduling and also gave a courtesy call the day before the event to remind me. Mary will make your event the talk of the "ton!"

Mary made our evening!!!!

We had a big Irish family gathering and Mary played during cocktails and dinner.
Heavenly music.
Perfect accompaniment.
But Mary was so much more than an accomplished harpist.
She took the initiative to learn (by ear!) a couple tunes that I had requested and with which she was previously unfamiliar. And she mastered them beautifully! I was moved to tears.
Mary’s personality won us over from the start and we really felt like she was one of the clan!
MARY made our event super special. Everyone can’t stop talking about her! Hugs all around!
We’ll just have to come up with an excuse to have her again!
