Question 1

Is pre-registration required?

Accepted Answer

Yes-we need to know numbers before the event to ensure enough folks are signed up and that numbers of men and women are relatively even. The information that goes into the order form (email and phone number) is also used after the event to send your matches to you and share your contact info.

Question 2

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

Casual but dress to impress! No need to be overly fancy but keep in mind you'll want to make a good first impression. Attendees often wear jeans and a dressier shirt. Make sure your clothing is comfortable enough to sit and chat for a couple hours and move around the room for the ice breaker.

Question 3

What happens if I show up to the event without buying a ticket?

Accepted Answer

Most events sell out, so without pre-registering you risk being turned away if there are no seats left. If the event is sold out and you want to try your luck at getting a spot, you can come to the venue and see if there are any attendees that did not show up and request to fill their spot.

Question 4

I am so nervous! What can I expect?

Accepted Answer

Once you sign in, you'll be given a clipboard, name tag, & drink ticket and can order your drink in our private event room. At event start time, we'll do a fun group ice breaker and then you'll be directed to your first table. We'll start the timed dates & convo starter cards will be on each table!

Question 5

How does matching work?

Accepted Answer

Your match card will have three columns: match, friend, or pass. Matches have to be mutual-if you match someone and they also match you, you'll receive each others phone #'s after the event. If someone matches you and you friend match them, it defaults to a friend match. Pass cancels out  matches.

Question 6

How long after the event do I have to wait to get my matches?

Accepted Answer

Matches are sent out no later than two days after the event. For Saturday events, expect your match email by end of the day on Monday. For Sunday events, expect your match email by end of the day on Tuesday. All attendees receive an email regardless of matches-you may need to check your junk folder!

Question 7

What if I am outside of the age parameters?

Accepted Answer

If you are within a year or two of the age parameters-send us a message or email. If you are further than a couple years we ask that you wait for an event in your age grouping. We try to offer a variety of age groupings throughout the year!

Question 8

Can I buy a ticket for my friend/family member?

Accepted Answer

Yes-however please ensure their name, number and email are what is entered on the order form so we can make their name tag correctly and send out their matches after the event!

Question 9

How do you help attendees feel safe and comfortable?

Accepted Answer

We have a "stop the date" card on each table which can be utilized if someone is being disrespectful /threatening. This allows you to end the date, get up from the table and take a break until the bell sounds. To date, no one has used the card but knowing it is available can help with comfortability

Question 10

What if I see someone I know or have dated?

Accepted Answer

You will never be forced to go on a speed date with someone you're not comfortable with. Please talk to the host before the event starts and let them know you will need to take a break during that round. You can also email ahead if you are nervous someone you know may have signed up.

Question 11

Any tips to know in advance?

Accepted Answer

Come with an open mind, rather than looking for a type! Be open to friend matches-some great relationships are rooted in friendship. Take a chance to learn something new even if you don't feel chemistry. Arrive with enough time to order your drink & get settled! Being rushed heightens nerves.
