Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on April 9, 2012From Harvard, MA

I was searching for someone to come play the fiddle and to teach some step dancing for my daughter's 5th birthday party. Mary King responded with such a genuine interest in coming to create a great time for my daughter and her friends that I knew right away we were in for a treat! Mary had a way about her that made me feel at ease working with her, and we found her to be the perfect mix of professional and personal. She was very gracious and easy going--and she brought a smile with her music that gave our birthday girl a fiddle/dance party she will never forget! :) She comes with our highest recommendation!

FuneralReviewed on April 8, 2012From Westford, MA

Mary played her beautiful harp and sang quietly at my mother's wake. Mary was extremely compassionate while we were making the plans. She could not have been more accommodating to our needs during a very stressful time. She arrived early, set up and played the entire 3 hours. She was so professional, that we would not have known she was there except for the heavenly music that was playing. Her talent is exceptional. The music that she played was soothing and uplifting. I would highly recommend hiring Mary for the wake or funeral of your loved one. She is very affordable and will bring an atmosphere of peace to a sad time.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on December 31, 2011From Framingham, MA

Mary did an absolutely fantastic job at our wedding. I recommend her whole heartily without any reservation. She discussed our ceremony at length with me several times over the course of planning the wedding, and was so flexible about what music would be played and helpful in guiding me towards what would work best. I trusted her judgement on all of the music selections and they all just sounded so wonderful. She arrived much earlier than guests did to set up, and even played after all the guests left while we took formal shots. I cannot express how much her music added to the atmosphere of our ceremony, and many guests told me how much they loved her music.

Mary was a fantastic harpist and beyond!! She was super helpful with song choices for the ceremony and worked very hard to make sure we had exactly the wedding ceremony that we wanted. I would completely recommend her not only for her excellent talent but also as a person that is extremely nice and pleasant to work with. Thanks Mary!!!! Dave and Meaghan

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on September 25, 2011From Plymouth, MA

Mary was very professional and prompt in responding to our inquiries and offered many suggestions for music. She came early to set up and had a nice repoire with everyone. Her music added the perfect touch to my daughters wedding ceremony. I received many compliments regarding the beautiful music she played. I would not hesitate to recommend Mary King to my family and friends to play at a special event. Mary's talent as a harpist and warm Irish personality left us not only with a wonderful experience but she also is now considered a special friend. Thank you so much Mary for adding your special touch to our very important day. The Haidul Family

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on September 2, 2011From Newport, RI

Mary played harp for our wedding ceremony at the Hyatt Lighthouse on Goat Island, Newport, RI. It was amazing - She was amazing! She was very easy to get ahold of and discuss the playlist for the wedding - she emailed me suggestions and followed up with me to confirm. She played while guests were arriving and being seated, played for wedding party and my entrance and again while guests exited after the ceremony. It was a beautiful touch to the ceremony. Mary was super easy to work with and I am so happy we booked her for our wedding. I would definitely recommend Mary and her beautiful harp playing for your event.

Mary was super accomodating, very sweet and has amazing talent. Her harp is not only beautiful to listen to but also a sight to be seen. She is a kind and caring person who is clearly in the business to please her clients. I could not be more pleased with Mary and will recommend her highly! Thank you for giving me the chance to share how much I enjoyed her!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on December 22, 2010From Winchester, MA

Mary was a delightful performer for my small wedding. She arrived on time, and her presence and humor was much appreciated, down to her magical green aloha slippers! I would highly recommend her if you want your wedding music to be special and to enjoy a talented musician. She played a few seasonal tunes that I requested that are not commonly played in the United States, and she played them well. You will be very happy with Mary King!

Club EventReviewed on March 12, 2010From Middleboro, MA

In all my dealings with Mary King, she was very pleasamt and professional. She confirmed her date and arrived an hour early before the performance to be sure of the space. She gave a group of club women even though they were few in number, a very enjoyable afternoon of music and gentle Irish humor. Ekeanor Osborne, Program Committe, Cabot Club, GFWC of Massachusetts

Holiday PartyReviewed on December 12, 2012From Boston, MA

Mary was Terrific. From the moment we booked to Mary's final note of the evening's event, everything was perfect. She arrived early and was ready to play on time. She even played beyond the scheduled end time, as our guests were having such a good time with her. Mary took requests and enjoyed chatting (while playing) with many of our guests. She clearly loves entertaining and she was perfect for our party. 5 out of 5 stars!
