I went to my first speed dating event last week and it was pretty fun! The organizers did a good job keeping things moving. I met about 15 people, and while I probably wouldn't have swiped right on most of them on Tinder, it was still a more engaging way to meet new folks. Got a couple matches, so we'll see where that goes!

I was nervous going in, but the speed dating event exceeded my expectations. The venue was great - not too loud, with a nice bar area. I appreciated how the host gave us conversation starters. Met some interesting people and ended up with 2 matches. My only suggestion would be to have slightly longer rounds - 5 minutes felt a bit rushed sometimes.

This was my second speed dating event, and it was much better organized than the first. The age range was spot-on, and I liked the brief mingling session before the actual dates began. It helped break the ice. I'd love to see them offer themed nights in the future. One thing to note - it can get pretty loud with everyone talking at once, so be prepared to speak up!

I can't believe how much fun I had at the speed dating event! The organizers were fantastic, keeping everything running smoothly. I loved the little scorecards they provided - made it easy to keep track of my impressions. Met some great people and even got a couple of matches. It's definitely more engaging than swiping endlessly on apps!

Speed dating was a fun experience overall. It's nice to actually meet people face-to-face instead of just looking at profiles. The event I went to had a good mix of people, though it skewed a bit older than I expected. The organizers did a great job making sure everyone rotated properly. My only complaint is that some people seemed to treat it like a game, not taking it seriously.

I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable the speed dating event was. The organizers did a great job balancing the number of men and women. I liked the option to grab a drink between rounds. It would be nice to have a few more ice-breaker questions provided. Overall, a fun experience and definitely better than endless app swiping!

This speed dating event was incredibly well-organized. The host was energetic and kept things moving smoothly. I appreciated the post-event mingling time - it allowed for more relaxed conversations. Met some fantastic people and got several matches. The venue was perfect too - not too noisy, with a great ambiance. Can't wait for the next one!

Speed dating was an interesting experience! It's fun enough to talk to people, but didn't amount to anything for me personally. I met about 15 people, and while I probably wouldn't have swiped right on most of them on Tinder, it was still a more engaging way to meet new folks. The organizers did a good job, but I wish the rounds were a bit longer.

What a great way to meet new people! The venue was perfect, and I appreciated the host's efforts to make everyone feel at ease. The mix of people was diverse and interesting. My only suggestion would be to have a brief break halfway through - it can get pretty intense talking to so many people in quick succession. Otherwise, it was a fantastic evening!

I loved the speed dating event I attended! It was held in a cozy cafe, which created a relaxed atmosphere. The organizers did a fantastic job of creating a laid-back vibe. I appreciated the optional icebreaker questions they provided. Met some wonderful people and even got a few matches. It's so much better than trying to gauge chemistry through text messages

Speed dating was a fun experience overall. It's nice to actually meet people face-to-face instead of just looking at profiles. The event I went to had a good mix of people, though it skewed a bit younger than I expected. The organizers did a great job making sure everyone rotated properly. My only complaint is that some people seemed to be there just for fun, not actually looking to date

I had a blast at the speed dating event! The organizers created a welcoming atmosphere with some ice-breaker games at the start. I met some interesting people and even got a few matches. The only improvement I'd suggest is having water available at each table - all that talking can make you thirsty! Overall, a fun evening and I'd definitely do it again

Speed dating is definitely better than dating apps in my opinion. You get to interact with people in person, which gives you a much better sense of who they are. The event I went to was well-organized, with clear instructions and a good system for rotating. I appreciated the brief orientation at the start. Met some great people and got a couple of promising matches

The venue was perfect - not too loud, with a great bar. I appreciated how the host gave us conversation prompts to keep things flowing. Met some amazing people and ended up with 3 matches. It can be a bit overwhelming talking to so many people in one night, but it's also exciting. Definitely prefer this to endless messaging on apps!

I decided to try speed dating on a whim and it was actually pretty fun! The organizers did a good job keeping things moving. I met about 12 people, and while I didn't feel a strong connection with most of them, it was still an engaging way to spend an evening. Got one match, so we'll see where that goes. It's nice to have actual conversations instead of just swiping left or right

Went to a speed dating event in Melbourne last nite. Was pretty good! Held at this cool bar in Fitzroy, nice vibe. Had like 10 rounds, 5 mins each. Met some intresting people, few seemed bit nervous tho. Organisers did good job keeping things moving. Got 3 matches which was sick! Only thing, wish theyd had more ice breakers or somthing. Still beats swiping on apps all day. Might go again next month.

So I tried speed dating in Sydney last week. It was... interesting. The event was at this bar in Surry Hills, decent spot but way too loud. We had like 12 'dates', each 4 minutes long. Some chats were great, others were just awkward af. The crowd was pretty diverse which was cool, but also meant not everyone was my type. Organisers seemed a bit overwhelmed tbh. One guy showed up late and messed up the whole rotation thing. Got one match, but she never replied to my message after. It wasn't terrible, but not sure if I'd do it again. Feels like a bit of a lottery. Might just stick to meeting people through friends or at pub trivia nights. At least the drinks were cheap!

Gave speed dating a crack here in Perth. Was at this fancy bar in Northbridge. Pretty well organized, tho it started bit late. Had about 10 'dates', 5 mins each. Some were great, others... not so much. But thats dating for ya, right? Crowd was mostly professionals, late 20s to early 40s. Got 3 matches, which was nice confidence boost. One thing tho - wish they'd enforce the 'no talking about work' rule more. Some people treated it like a networking event. Still, was a fun night out and beats swiping on Tinder all day. Might try again in few months.

Tried speed dating in Sydney other day. Was okay I guess. At a bar in CBD, bit noisy. Had 12 four-minute 'dates', felt rushed. Some good chats, lots of awkward silences too. Crowd was... mixed bag. Too many finance bros for me. Organisers seemed stressed, especially when some ppl left halfway thru. Got 2 matches but haven't heard back. Wasn't terrible, but probs not for me. Maybe better with different crowd/venue? For now, think I'll stick to meeting ppl thru hobbies or mates. At least beer was good! Might give it another go if friend wants to try, but not in a rush.

Gave speed dating a crack in Brissy last weekend. Was at this funky bar in Fortitude Valley, bit loud but good vibe. Had about 15 "dates", 4 mins each. Felt like speed networking at first but got into the swing of it! Some convos were mint, others... well, let's just say I was watching the clock. Organizers were tops, kept everything moving smooth. Even threw in some funny ice breakers which helped when things got awkward. Got 4 matches which was a nice surprise! Already been for coffee with one of em. Bit weird how some people were clearly there just for a laugh, not actually looking to date. Oh and pro tip: don't neck your drink between every round or you'll be sloshed by the end (learned that the hard way 😅). Overall, way better than endlessly swiping on Tinder. Might give it another go in a few months. If youre sick of dating apps, deff worth a shot. Just don't expect to find your soulmate in 4 mins!

So I tried this speed dating thing in Perth last night. Was at some swanky bar in Northbridge, bit too posh for my liking tbh. Had like 12 "dates" or whatever, 5 mins each. Some blokes were alright, others... lets just say I was prayin for the bell to ring 😂 Organisers seemed a bit frazzled, specially when some sheila showed up late and messed up the whole rotation. Got 2 matches which was ok I spose. One of em seemed promising but hasn't replied to my msg yet. Classic. Gotta say, it was pretty full on. By the end my throat was sore from all the yapping! Wish they'd given us more breaks or maybe some water. And seriously, what's with all the finance bros? Felt like I was speed dating at a bank sometimes 🙄 Not sure if I'd do it again. Maybe if they held one at a more chill spot? It was deff different from swiping on apps all day, I'll give em that. If ur curious, might be worth a go. Just don't expect miracles in 5 mins, yeah?

Alright, so I gave this speed dating gig a go in Melbs last Sat. Was at this hipster joint in Brunswick, pretty decent setup. Had about 10 mini-dates, 6 mins each. Bit of a mixed bag tbh - some convos were ace, others were like pulling teeth 😅 The organisers were pretty on it, kept things ticking along nicely. They even chucked in some random questions to keep it interesting. Met this one girl who was proper funny, had me in stitches the whole time. Got 3 matches which was a nice surprise! Already been for a coffee with one of em. Bit weird how some people rocked up in groups tho, felt like they were just there for a laugh. One thing - wish they'd sorted the age groups better. Was sposed to be 25-35 but I swear some folks looked about 40! Still, beats swiping on Bumble all day. Might give it another crack in a few months. If ur sick of dating apps, could be worth a shot. Just don't expect to find ur soulmate in 6 mins, yeah? 😂

Righto, so I tried this speed dating thing in Sydney last night. Was at some fancy bar in the CBD, bit too noisy if ya ask me. Had like 8 "dates" or somethin, 7 mins each. Some of the chats were alright, others were proper awkward. Had one bloke who just talked about his job the whole time 🙄 The organisers seemed a bit out of their depth, specially when some guy chucked a wobbly and left halfway through. Got 1 match which was... yeah, not great. Haven't heard back from him yet, so who knows. Gotta say, it was pretty full on. By the end I was knackered from all the small talk! Wish they'd given us more breaks or maybe some snacks. And seriously, what's with all the IT guys? Felt like I was speed dating at a tech conference sometimes 😂 Not sure if I'd do it again tbh. Maybe if they held one at a more chilled place? It was defo different from swiping on Tinder all day, I'll give em that. If ur curious, might be worth a go. Just don't expect too much, yeah? And maybe bring some throat lozenges! 😅

Success Stories 💑

Many have already found love

“I would like to let you know that last month,

I attended one of your speed dating nights in Hardware Lane and met the most beautiful girl. We connected and you sent our numbers to us.

We met up again the next day and have been on many dates and have spoken every day, for hours It’s been 6 weeks + and going strong.

Just wanted to let you know of one of your success stories. The future looks bright.

We recommend your speed dating nights to every single person we speak to. It was so much fun. Thank you.”

“I just wanted to let you know…

That I won’t been attending your next event. I had already purchased the ticket earlier… I attended the last event and had a wonderful time… after I worked up the courage to actually walk in…

I was so nervous and almost didn’t go in but I am really glad I did I have made a connection with a great guy and am looking forward to pursuing that and seeing how we go.

So thank you for all the effort in putting these events together… don’t worry about giving me a refund on the ticket, maybe you can give that to someone that rocks up on the night without a ticket as I know how hard They are to get. thanks so much again.”

“When I went to my first speed dating event, I had zero expectations

– less than zero actually.

But yup, when I walked into that bar, I saw him and went all nervous.

I wouldn’t say our first conversation was scintillating. I don’t even remember what small talk we made – maybe our jobs.

At the end of the event, I saw him sitting alone and asked whether I could sit next to him. He said he wanted to see me again and I said the same.

We are now happily and exclusively together. If I have any advice to give anyone, it would be to give speed dating a try. I was lucky to have found my person the first time around. But I had been online dating for a year with no success.

You may not find someone the first time or the 10th time, but at least these guys take the trouble to show up and put their best foot forward. They are making the effort which is more than I can say for some people on online dating sites – and that’s not even counting the sleazeballs.
– a happy attendee”
