Hello! My name is Mary-Kate Spring and congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I first was introduced to the harp at the age of 12 and it was love at first glissando.

Elements I love about playing weddings: finding the exact right music to match a couples' ceremony, collaborating with some other amazing musicians, and getting to experience the fun, beauty, and happiness of weddings over and over.

Mary-Kate was not only easy to work with, but our guests raved about the music at our ceremony. Seasons did not disappoint! My brother is a singer and I wanted to include him in a song. They allowed me to do this and the whole thing was fabulous. If you want your guests to remember your ceremony music, hire Mary-Kate S. Lee!

We booked Mary-Kate to play our wedding ceremony/cocktail hour and she blew us away! Not only did she play beautifully but she executed exactly what we asked for and was even willing to learn any songs that she didn't already know. The harp was the perfect touch to our ceremony and made us feel like we were in a whimsical fairytale! Mary-Kate was also so kind and easy to work with, I highly recommended booking with her to make your wedding feel like a fairytale!

Hi Christy,
Thank you so much! I loved your song selections and have been using "Today Was...
a Fairytale" and "You'll Be In My Heart" at all my events now. Thanks for the great ideas and all the best!

Mary-Kate provided piano accompaniment for our wedding ceremony and then piano music for our "cock-tail" hour. She was easy to work with, providing input on music selections to fit our wedding ceremony and style. She was also very accommodating and willing to learn new music. I requested a very specific piece of music to walk down the aisle to, and Mary-Kate found the music in order to play it during the ceremony. That meant so much to me! We also had a hymn sung by our guests during the ceremony. Mary-Kate worked with me to make sure she had the correct accompaniment.
During the "cocktail" hour she played a variety of classic rock pieces on the piano at our request.
I would highly recommend Mary-Kate! We loved having her be part of our special day. Here piano playing added a very special touch to our day.

Mary Kate did a beautiful job with our wedding. It was in a wooded location and she made sure to find everything and set up smoothly prior to the ceremony. She also transitioned to another location and played for our cocktail hour as well. She took our requests prior to the event and her music added a special magical touch.

We hired Mary-Kate Lee for our wedding ceremony in March (2023). It was one of the best decisions we ever made! I had a lifelong dream of having a harpist at my wedding, and Mary-Kate Lee exceeded my expectations. Not only was the music beautiful, but she allowed me to choose my own songs. This made my wedding ceremony memorable and truly one of a kind. My only regret is not hiring her and her team for our cocktail hour as well. Thank you Mary-Kate Lee!

I hired Mary-Kate and her brother Luke to play for our Wedding Ceremony and they truly helped make the event absolutely beautiful! In addition to her amazing talent as a harpist, she's amazing to work with. She was able to provide suggestions for music, as well as pick up and perform any music suggestions I had, both traditional and modern. It was also amazing that since she is very familiar with Catholic ceremonies she was able to sing both our Responsorial Psalm (the music for which she learned specifically for our Wedding) as well as the Alleluia. Having those additional sung pieces really elevated our ceremony. She was also incredibly flexible with having to postpone our Wedding due to the COVID-19 pandemic and more than accommodating in abiding by any rules in place at the Church to ensure everyone remained safe.

She explained in detail how everything would work at the ceremony/reception with her part of the entertainment. We got so many comments about how beautiful her music was. She even learned some new songs for us, which was AMAZING! Mary-Kate's music was the perfect backdrop to our fairytale wedding!

She is so open to song selections and learning new pieces as well as quick at getting back to you with answers to questions. The way she plays the harp warms my heart. I would recommend her over and over. I had an outside wedding and she knew exactly where to be and how to set up (had her own mic) for it to carry perfectly. Thanks Mary-Kate!!

There are not words that exist that express how happy we were with Seasons and how perfect they were. Mary-Kate was so easy to work with and really helpful throughout the process. I was able to meet with her twice to work out the ceremony music and she was so flexible and answered all my questions. I sang in my ceremony and she rehearsed with me and also did the rehearsal at the church. The trio was amazing the day of the wedding, people can't stop talking about how great they were. I can't recommend them highly enough. Wonderful people, perfect price, beautiful music!!

We couldn't be happier with all of our wedding vendors, but especially Mary-Kate and the rest the Seasons family band! Every step of the process was so simple and the resulting music on our wedding day was beautiful. When we initially met with Mary Kate, it was relaxed and we felt like she truly cared about finding music we loved. Making the wedding suggestions playlist with her was fun, and she kept us in the loop on how the band/playlist was progressing as time went on. On the day of the wedding, the band was in and out quietly and without any issues, and the music was BEAUTIFUL.
A few people were surprised when we told them we had selected a "Celtic" band for the ceremony and cocktail hour, Seasons talents are flexible, and they were able to play a host of modern songs. My dream was to walk down to the aisle to Electric Light Orchestra, and I was so thrilled that they were able to learn the song for me. Honestly, one of my few regrets on my wedding day is that my husband and I were busy during cocktail hour and didn't get to hear more of their wonderful music.

Absolutely a beautiful music for our wedding! It was a perfect fall day with colorful leaves all over the ground and sweet sounds of the harp played by Mary-Kate as I walked down the aisle. I could not have asked for a more perfect moment. We chose to have just a harp for during the arrival of our guests and ceremony. For our cocktail hour, we chose a harp, hammered dulcimer, and cello which was perfect! A lot of our guest commented on how great the music was. They were impressed to hear current songs played on these instruments. Mary-Kate was easy to work with and responded to my emails quickly. I met with her prior to our wedding to select some songs, all of which were beautiful. All the musicians were professional and wonderful!

My wife and I found Seasons' music through the reccommendation of a friend and coworker. We contacted Mary Kate about playing the harp for our wedding ceremony. She responded almost immediately and was very pleasant to deal with from the very beginning of the planning phase. We didn't know exactly what we wanted for our ceremony song selections, but Mary Kate guided us through the process of picking the perfect musical pieces for each moment and was extremely helpful, informative, and answered any questions or concerns that we had. To narrow down our selections, we talked with Mary Kate via telephone (we are located in another state). She had her harp by the phone and would play songs as we discussed, which was unbelievable to us and really helped us pick the songs we thought would blend well with our ceremony. What was more impressive is that she already knew almost every song we mentioned and was already plucking away at the verses before we asked if she knew it! She even learned and transposed a song request for us when we asked for a song she hadn't heard before. I was unsure if this song would work on the harp, as it is primarily a brass and guitar arrangement. She nailed it! I would recieve regular emails from her with sound attachments showing us the progress she was making on the song. It really blew us away. By the time the big day rolled around she was well prepared (probably more so than we were lol). She was very professional, showed up well ahead of time, had all necessary equipment. It went so smoothly. We couldn't have hoped for better muscial accompaniment to our ceremony. She is very talented. We recieved many comments from friends and guests about how well the ceremony went and how good the music sounded, and it was all because of Mary Kate. If you are planning a wedding I cannot express my reccommendation of May Kate strongly enough. She created the perfect musical atmosphere for our wedding and was absolutely priceless to us during the planning process. Thank you Mary Kate!!

We heard about Seasons through a friend and co-worker. After viewing their website and enjoying their music, we emailed Mary-Kate to ask if she would play harp for our wedding. She was very prompt in her responses throughout the whole process, she worked with us to determine our playlist, and when we requested a song she didn't know or hadn't heard before - she learned it (it had to be transposed to harp!). We couldn't be happier with our decision to ask Mary-Kate to play for our wedding. Her music was the perfect compliment to our ceremony and she was very pleasant to deal with. Would absolutely recommend to anyone considering hiring her for any event whatsoever. Her talent and professionalism made our special day a great success!

Seasons played the harp and cello at our outdoor wedding ceremony in June. The music was absolutely beautiful! Mary-Kate made the music selection process very simple. She mailed us a demo CD, and we met in person to make the final song selections. During the song selection, her music moved us to tears because it was so beautiful and flawless. Mary-Kate could not make it to our wedding rehearsal, so she sent us a CD of the ceremony music to play while we rehearsed. We are very happy that we chose Seasons to play our wedding ceremony music. We highly recommend Seasons to anyone!

When planning a wedding, it's easy for so many things to go wrong. For me, working with Seasons Music, and Mary-Kate in particular, was one of the few things that went right from the very beginning.
Mary-Kate and her band-mates bring together the perfect blend of talent, value, and professionalism. It's clear that Seasons is, well, seasoned when it comes to weddings, and Mary-Kate made discussing the band's availability and the music choices for my April 2016 wedding an absolute breeze. She was even able to recommend another amazing musician to act as the cantor for the ceremony. From the church to the reception venue, Seasons created the perfect ambiance with its impeccable performances.
I would highly recommend that any couple hoping to make their wedding day even more perfect with the addition of truly beautiful music reach out to Mary-Kate and Seasons Music as soon as possible. My husband and I can attest that you'll be so glad you did.

There just are too many nice things to say about Mary Kate and her brother who performed at our wedding. My father coordinated with them to surprise my husband and I with a special song as a gift from him, which was my parent's wedding song. Mary Kate and her brother played and sang "Perfect Love" which made our ceremony so much more special. On top of that, they learned the Penn State fight song to play on the harp and hammered dulcimer as our recessional. They have such a selection and so much expertise in helping to select the absolute perfect music. Mary Kate was easy to work with and very professional to top that. I would pick Season's again in a heartbeat if I need music at an event!

My wife and I were previously divorced with this being our second marriage. One of us at some point likely said we would get married again “when hell freezes over”. Ok, well that was probably me, but on April 9, 2016 when we were preparing for marriage it began to snow many had believed that hell was in fact freezing over. Beyond the snow that was in stark contrast to our Hawaiian themed wedding, the day was perfect and Seasons was a big part of it.
We have heard Mary-Kate and Seasons play many times before at Masonic ladies night functions, fundraising events for the Wounded Warriors of Pennsylvania, and at several Widener Law School graduations. The first time we heard Mary-Kate play we fell in love with the harp and her perky personality along with Peter’s humor and were happy that we could include them as part of our day.
We were very fortunate to be able to get married in the Supreme Court Chambers as my wife is an attorney for a committee of the PA State Supreme Court. We were also honored to have Retired State Supreme Court Justice Michael Eakin preside over our ceremony. Having the music of a harp, a dulcimer, and a cello in such a beautiful venue was perfect.
We worked with Mary-Kate for music selections for our prelude and during our ceremony. I made a list of what I wanted to hear and she knew it all and promised if there was something on my list that she didn’t know she would learn it beforehand! She made a few recommendations that she played when we met to be certain that it was what we wanted. We couldn’t have asked for more. My wife and our guests were truly delighted.

Mary-Kate not only played the harp but she rehearsed my singers on sort notice, sometimes teaching them the songs on her piano first! They thought she was very sweet to work with. Their collaboration on "Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring" turned out great! My brother ended up sounding like Josh Groban! There was a little confusion regarding which of the Seasons band would be playing with her, but they got the job done. She was very flexible with sharing the accompaniment with the church organist, alternating songs. My wedding ran 20 minutes late but the guests told me that they were calmly mingling because they kept playing prelude and later, cocktail music :) I ran out of time to pick cocktail hour songs so we in general talked about a collection of Pop covers, Show tunes such as "I could have danced all night" from My Fair Lady, and Celtic. Though I was off getting pictures, guests told me that they loved her brother Peter Lee on hammer dulcimer, and her sister Mary-Teresa Lee on harp. Songs the guests highlighted were Disney songs from Mary Poppins and Beauty and the Beast. Those were perfect selections for my husband and me because the Lees have memories with us related to those songs growing up, and he and I went to Disney for our honeymoon!

Mary-Kate Lee played the harp at our wedding ceremony in June 2015, and she has also played at my sister’s wedding almost 10 years ago now! The music she played was so heart-warming and created such an incredible atmosphere for our special day. Mary-Kate collaborated with my cousin, who is a singer from out of town, and also with the organist from our church. She is so easy to work with and has a wonderful heart, along with the rest of the Seasons! She played the most beautiful songs for the prelude and during the ceremony; they were so peaceful and elegant. The whole day was amazing, and we were so happy and blessed Mary-Kate could be a part of it! She is gifted with music, and I would highly recommend her or the Seasons to anyone! Thank you so much Mary-Kate!

Mary-Kate made our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour so special. We received so many wonderful compliments on her beautiful playing. Her music added such a special touch to our wedding that made it feel so personal, beautiful, and unique. We could not have asked for a better musician for our wedding day! She's the best!

Mary-Kate was an absolute delight to work with and made all of my dreams come true! I wanted to play Johnny Cash for my husband as a surprise and she was willing to learn the song. Her excitement to make sure I was the happiest bride was absolutely so wonderful! When I finally met Mary-Kate for the first time to go over some of the music in person; I had tears in my eyes most of the time because the music was just so beautiful and breathtaking (it made it easier to decide on the music that way too hehe). I recommend having her for your ceremony and cocktail hour! She was such a blessing to find for our big day!

My husband and I asked Seasons to play for our small outdoor wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and they were enchanting. We had a trio of harp, cello, and hammered dulcimer. I received so many complements from my family on the lovely music. Working with Mary-Kate was a pleasure. From the first email she was quick to respond, accommodating, and very sweet. The trio learned two special songs that I requested and played a whole program of music that suited our taste and the wedding itself. The cost was very reasonable. I cannot say enough about Seasons. They are amazing musicians and they truly made my wedding special.

Absolutely wonderful to work with! Mary-Kate is extremely organized and insightful when it comes to preparing, yet she is also patient and kind and really listens to how you picture your day. Mary-Theresa played the harp at our wedding and was PHENOMENAL! Everyone was so impressed how well the music came together at the ceremony. Peter Lee also DJ-ed at our reception and really kept the whole night going. All of our guests had an absolute blast! If you are looking for a great group of musicians who can comfortably appeal to your hip friends and older family members, Seasons Music is perfect!

Mary-Kate was absolutely amazing, and we are so thankful she was part of our day and celebration. Her music was phenomenal and our guests are still raving on the music she was able to produce with her harp. In addition to Mary-Kate's incredible talent, she is very personable and wonderful to work with. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful addition to your celebration.

I hired Seasons to play the harp at my outdoor wedding ceremony. I worked with Mary-Kate Lee. She was awesome! I wanted my sister to sing a song, and my nieces to play their violin for a few songs, and Mary-Kate was great in working with me. She was great in responding to my messages, and questions. This was definitely worth the money, and I am glad I picked Seasons!
Thanks Mary-Kate, and God bless!!!

We worked with Seasons Music (and specifically Mary-Kate Lee) for our wedding day in November and I cannot say enough great things about their music, and the service we received. We originally met Mary-Kate and her brother at a bridal show over a year ago and after hearing them play for just a minute, we immediately booked them. For those not familiar, these instruments have a beautiful sound - the harp and hammered dulcimer is simply magical when played together. We met with Mary-Kate once prior to our wedding day and she was willing to play any song we requested (We played a combination of traditional and modern ceremony music) and we were blown away with how beautiful the sound is. In addition, they are extremely accommodating and were willing to meet with us as often as we needed to make sure we were happy with the final music choice. We didn't need to meet more than once, they got it right the very first time!
For the price, you are getting an amazing quality of sound, and truly a great group of family members who take pride in their work and deliver service in a warm and friendly way. It was really important for me to work with vendors that I trusted, and I felt this the entire time. You can't go wrong. Every single one of our guests said the music during our ceremony was truly magical and created a romantic experience for everyone who attended.

Mary-Kate played her harp beautifully for our wedding. She was very adaptable to the harp we rented as she was coming from out of town. Also, she was instrumental in setting up arrangements with the other musicians we had flying in from around the country. We could not have imagined how well everything turned out. We never had to worry about a musical thing!

Mary Kate and Peter played prior to and during my son's wedding ceremony, which was held outdoors at our home. The music was perfect; Mary Kate and Peter were outstanding, and they also looked amazing--as in totally polished and professional. The comments/compliments were all positive. In short, hire them!! You will not be disappointed.

We chose Seasons to provide the ceremony and cocktail hour music for my daughter's wedding at the Stone Mill Inn in Hallam Pa. We first net Mary Kate at a wedding show in York and were immediately impressed with both her music and her willingness to help us decide what would be most appropriate for our needs. About 2-3 months before the wedding I met with Mary Kate and we discussed musical options for the ceremony. She was very helpful with suggestions and listened to my requests and ideas. Together we worked out what turned out to be a perfect playlist.
On the day of the wedding Mary Kate and her partner arrived promptly and set up immediately. They conferred with the venue coordinator and set up with no disruption to the arriving guests.
We couldn't have been happier with the ceremony music and our guests raved about it! The music continued during the cocktail hour with a variety of selections which our guests loved.
I communicated with Mary Kate on every question and always received a prompt response. We couldn't have been happier!!! I would not hesitate to recommend Seasons for any event.

My wife and I were married at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire, and Mary-Kate Lee's beautiful harp performance was included in the wedding package. Before the wedding, we asked her to perform the Evenstar theme from Lord of the Rings as the guests were taking their seats (the movies were the reason my wife and I were introduced, and it's a beautiful song). She knew it by heart already and played it excellently, setting exactly the atmosphere we had hoped for. We also asked for the classic bridal march, which as you may know, has sustained notes because it's usually played on an organ. Harps don't do sustained notes, so a good rendition can be difficult. Mary-Kate Lee came through with the perfect rendition. Better than I'd even hoped. Thank you for helping make our special day everything we ever wanted it to be!

What a lovely group of musicians! They were so friendly and easy to work with. They were wonderful about including all of the music that we wanted as well as giving good suggestions when we weren't sure what to pick for preludes, etc. I wanted to include my brother (an amateur pianist) in the wedding and they were so gracious in getting him involved, setting up group rehearsals, etc. Overall, a wonderful experience. And the harp is such a perfect instrument for a wedding!

Mary-Kate is such a talented musician. She played her solo harp at our wedding ceremony. We received so many compliments on how intimate the harp made the ceremony feel. She was so easy to work with and gave us wonderful recommendations on what music selections to use, all of which turned out to be perfect for our day. I would recommend Mary-Kate to anyone.

My husband and I celebrated our son's wedding at a rehearsal dinner in Lewisburg, PA. It was at a farm with the musical group Seasons performing. They provided beautiful, elegant music for our event and also played some patriotic tunes (as it was held on July 4) and even played Happy Birthday for our grandson, whose birthday was that day. They were very professional, showing up on time, flexible, willing to do whatever we wished, and kind. Many of our guests commented on the beautiful music. The group is so easy to work with and I hope that someday I have the pleasure of using them again!!

My husband and I were thrilled with our choice of working with Seasons for our ceremony. Mary-Kate was easy and friendly to work with; she responded quickly whenever we contacted her, and was a joy to work with when we met to plan our music. She is clearly an excellent musician, and was very thoughtful as we talked about the pieces we were considering for the ceremony, patiently playing different options for us. The day of the ceremony the band played beautifully and our coordinator thought they were a dream to work with. I would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a string ensemble, and would love to have an excuse to hire them again!

We originally heard Seasons at St. Luke's church concert a couple of years ago and was impressed. We asked Mary-Kate to play the harp at our wedding; which was held at Allenberry by the Yellow Breeches under an old oak tree in the ancient Celtic tradition. Mary-Kate was amazing. Our guests are still raving. They said she made the ceremony so beautiful. Without exaggerating, several said they wept. We can't thank her enough. The booking and arrangements were very easy. Allenberry had a platform for her. She took care of herself. We didn't have to do a thing, but listen to her music. Every wedding should be so blessed with her floating sounds. She helped make our ceremony sacred. Thank you. Ray & g'...

My husband and I are both musicians, and when we first saw Mary-Kate play harp at the PA Renn Faire, we were most impressed and contacted her shortly thereafter to play at our wedding. Mary-Kate provided both the ceremony and cocktail hour music. She was quick to respond, professional, and her musicality is second to none. We even requested a song for her to learn, and she sent us a recording of it after the wedding!

We had the honor of having Mary-Kate and her family play at our outdoor wedding ceremony in the Hershey Gardens. From the moment we reached out to Mary-Kate, you could feel the warmth and love that she puts into her music. Planning the wedding from three hours away, we were very thankful to have someone like Mary-Kate. She was quick to responding with emails and even offered to have a practice session with our family friend whom was singing a few solos for us. Our guests can't stop talking about how much they enjoyed listing to their beautiful music. We highly recommend them to perform for any occasion!

Mary-Kate was so sweet to work with. She helped me pick songs and made suggestions that fit the overall theme I wanted to achieve. We used her for both the ceremony and the cocktail hour and I wish I had been able to hear more of her playing myself! What I did hear during the processional, ceremony, and recessional was great and so many guests commented afterwards how lovely the music was. They especially loved when she played light "pop" songs they recognized. One thing I really liked was she sent a sample CD for me.. this helped me convince my now husband how great an addition an harpist would be to our day. I also really enjoyed that she was quick to respond via email and overall just great to work with. I highly recommend her and I cannot wait till we get our wedding DVD so I can hear some more of her music.

We were thrilled with Seasons. The only issue we had was we had given them them the date and time of the rehersal and my entrace was based on a music cue. They had booked themselves in Boston for the same day and were late (arrived while we were eating) so only a few of us ran though with the music. I was the only one who noticed I didn't enter at the moment I wanted to... so it wasn't a big deal, just mildly annoying. Otherwise, the music was great, and the guests loved it.

Mary-Kate and her harp couldn't have been more lovely a detail in my outdoor wedding at Fort Hunter, Harrisburg, PA. Not only does Mary-Kate have amazing talent, her very presence was almost angelic and an absolutely perfect addition to ANY wedding. She was beyond professional to the point of becoming intimately involved in her music and everyone at the ceremony. She was such a pleasure to work with and everyone could really tell she immensely enjoys her work and making each bride's wedding day just beautiful. She made sure to check in with me every step of the way during the process before the wedding and offered her help and advice in such a polite and considerate manner. It was just fun working with her and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a charming way to add that special touch to their wedding or any event.

I had the opportunity to meet Mary-Kate of Seasons when she played at my bridal shower and I immediately knew that I wanted one of the Seasons musicians to provide the ceremony music at our wedding. My fiance and I communicated with Mary-Kate via email and then met with Mary-Kate and Mary-Grace at their home prior to the wedding to finalize plans. Both Mary-Kate and Mary-Grace were enthusiastic, gracious, and eager to fine-tune a program that fulfilled our dreams. They played samples of traditional as well as modern songs and helped us to choose just the right selection. We felt that they really understood our wishes, and the process could not have been easier. On the day of the wedding, Mary-Grace arrived promptly and had another family member with her for assistance (our ceremony site was a long walk from the parking area). The music was beautiful and provided just the right touch for our lakeside ceremony. Guests remarked how lovely the performance was, and my fiance and I were delighted with Mary-Grace's professional demeanor. It is apparent from working with both Mary-Kate and Mary-Grace that they love performing for others and participating in special occasions. They offered heartfelt well-wishes and sincere congratulations. I would not hesitate to recommend Seasons for weddings as well as any special occasion. Truly delightful!

My husband and I were fortunate enough to have Mary-Kate and her brother Peter play a harp and hammered dulcimer duet for our ceremony. Mary-Kate had been recommended to my mother, and we were absolutely thrilled with them! When I first met Mary-Kate during our initial meeting, I found that she is both an amazing musician and a wonderfully sweet and caring person. Both during the initial meeting and during our finalization meeting, she took time to really listen to my goals, interests, and questions about our wedding music. She offered wonderful suggestions for song selections that I was uncertain of, and she was happy to experiment with contemporary songs that we wanted to blend in to our ceremony. They even coordinated with a family friend to do a hymn during our ceremony. We received countless compliments regarding their music after the wedding. Thank you so much to Mary-Kate and Peter for helping to make our wedding such a wonderful event!

From the moment my daughter got engaged, she knew she wanted to plan a more sophisticated and graceful wedding; and what better way to achieve this than through music! We were fortunate enough to find Season’s Music. Mary-Kate made my daughter’s dream come true!
From the first contact to the final good bye on the wedding day, Mary-Kate was a tremendous help. She was very responsive to emails, answered all our questions, made suggestions where needed, and provided a sample CD. Her exceptional talent gave the wedding ceremony just the right touch of elegance. We couldn’t be happier!! Our guests were moved by her awe-inspiring music and couldn’t stop talking about how “princess like” or regal it was.
I highly recommend Mary-Kate and Seasons for any special occasion you may have. You won’t be disappointed!!
