Speed Dating in Melbourne is huge. Sydney is generally regarded as Australia's capital for Speed Dating
popularity, but Melbourne can't be too far behind in our opinion. Melbourne has an excellent night life
and great atmosphere. There is always something to do here in Melbourne. The reason why Speed Dating
popularity has sky-rocketed is it quite simply takes
the time and awkwardness out of dating. Perfectly suited to
our fastpaced lifestyle, this is an dating concept that is rapidly
spreading all over the world.
It’s fast, it’s fun, and it’s
guaranteed to work!
Here’s
how: Let’s say you’ve registered with us and we’ve
notified you by email of an upcoming event. You arrive at
the venue around 7.30pm. Once there, you’ll probably
like to take a few minutes to relax and settle in while discreetly ‘checking
out’ your fellow speed daters as they arrive! (We invite
an even number of single and eligible bachelor and bachelorettes
to each speed dating session – usually around 15 of each).
Around 8pm, you’ll be briefed on the night’s procedures
by your friendly host, before the ‘speed dating’ begins
in earnest. Here goes…
Guys and
girls are paired together at individual tables and Round 1
STARTS. You now have exactly 6 minutes to get to know one
another! After 6 minutes a bell will ring and your first date
is officially OVER – there’s no time wasting here!
You then decide if you would like to see that person again
and mark your card with either a ‘Yes’ or a ‘No’.
The guys
then rotate to the next table before starting another
seven minute ‘mini date’ with a different girl.
We will take 2 breaks through out the evening: the first for a food break, the second for a designated
drinks break where you will receive your complimentary drink as promised. As Speed Dating
happens very quickly, these breaks are also designed for you to catch up with the guys/girls you took
a liking to during your "Speed Dating".
At the
end of the night you hand your card back to the host, for
subsequent MATCHING.
Matching
Now, the Speed Dating was fun but this is what you really came for...RESULTS.
A ‘match’
occurs when two people have both ticked ‘Yes’
to each other on their score cards. We will contact everyone the
very next day to pass on the details of their matches. This is where
the fun can come in. Take a list of your matches into work the next day and watch
the reactions of some of your workmates!!
At least
making that first phone call will feel a lot more comfortable
knowing that the person you’re calling is genuinely
keen to get to know you better. It’s a ‘Win-Win’
situation!
Why
does it work?
How can it not work? Just think about it for a second. How long would it take you to talk to 15 similarly
aged singles who are genuinely looking for someone? Depending on your social life it could take months....
Well not at a
Melbourne Speed Dating Event,
you get to do it in just 2 hours!!
Now, out
of every 15 similar aged singles you meet, how many do
you think you might want to see again? A few? Half? Even the
fussiest would have to pick at least one or two!!
Have you
ever been out on an Internet or blind date? A setup by a friend,
maybe? Talk about pressure, you start the evening
with your heart in your mouth and all sorts of anticipations,
but somehow things don’t quite work out – there’s
no connection and you just can’t wait for the night
to end...
At Melbourne
Speed Date we give you the chance to meet 15 singles for
six minutes each.
YOU get to see what this person looks like
with your own eyes.
YOU get to find out what this person is all
about, and see how compatible the two of you are.
YOU make the decision if you would like to
see that person again.
It really is that simple and easy.
So now
you can see why Speed Dating is so popular and effective here in Melbourne.
