Why Us
Here are just three reasons we make a great wingman!
Feel Good Events
We love what we do, which is why we’re so good at it! Our awesome hosts take real pride in ensuring guest experience, tailoring an approach to best suit your needs whilst having a lot of fun along the way. Our themed nights and ‘by Invitation’ events are uniquely designed to maximise matching outcomes whilst a strong link with our chosen charity ensures positive social impact with every ticket sold.
A Safe Space
We think our venues are some of the best in town, hand picked primarily for their ease of access and first class service. We are cheerleaders for kindness, honestly, and respect - values at the heart of our business to protect our growing community. We are in your corner, from pre-event pep talks to ensuring your data security whilst using our post-event messaging platform.
Designed for You
Because we recognise it’s sometimes less about speed and more about accuracy. We ask a little more about you to build a profile that allows us to deliver a lot more in terms of matchmaking outcomes. You will then be invited to tailored events with like minded guests that reflect your shared interests. The result - more common ground and a leg up the ladder of love. We call it It’s a Date ‘by Invitation’.
We can’t wait to hear your opinion, in the meantime, here are other guest views of our events.
