What is Speed Dating?
More people understand Speed Dating these days. The benefits are now well known. Upon arrival at one of our Speed Dating events, you will be checked in and given a personalised badge with a number on it. We will wait for everyone to arrive and then your host will give a quick welcome speech to let you know what to expect. Once the dating part of the evening starts, those with badge number one will start at table number one, those with badge number two at table number two and so on. After four minutes, we will ring a bell, the girls will stay seated and all the guys will move round one table. Between each date we allow a little time for you to make your notes on your dates using your Speeding Ticket. The events will continue (with a fifteen minute half time break) until you have met everyone there.
With Speed dating, everyone is there to meet other people – just like you. You have just enough time with each person to decide whether or not you would like to see them again, and you only get put in contact with the people you want to meet who also want to meet you again – no more awkward phone calls and no having to avoid people you don’t like.
What sort of people go speed dating?
Most are professionals who want to improve their chances of meeting the right person. They’re generally normal, attractive people with varied interests who normally mix with the same group of friends and work colleagues and rarely get the opportunity to meet many new people in one go.
Speed Dating is ideal for those who lead busy lives, don’t have much time and want to meet new people in a fun, safe environment.

What if I like another speed dater?
You will probably like lots of other people at one of our Speed Dating evenings – the difficulty is choosing who you would really like to see again. Use your Speeding Ticket to make notes at the end of each date and tick the people you like and want to see again. Hand in your ticket to the host who will compile your matches. If you forget to tick someone don’t worry we can tick them for you just call us or send us an email requesting the name and number of the person you would like to add.
How do I get in touch with them?
We will contact you the following day to let you know who your matches are. You will receive their email address and phone number, it’s then up to you if you would like to be the first to take the plunge and get in touch!
