FAQS

What if I'm 21 or 29?

We keep age ranges focused so everyone's in a similar life stage. If you're close to the age range, you're welcome to join.

What happens if I don't get any matches?

It happens! Think of it as practice and a chance to meet people in the community. Many friendships start at these events too!

What should I wear?

Whatever makes you feel confident. Most people go casual since it's a Tuesday night.

What are good conversation starters?

Ask about their favorite spots in the area, what they've been into lately, or how they spend their weekends. Keep it curious and light - you're just trying to see if there's a connection, not conduct an interview.

Will there be photos or videos?

No. We don't take any photos or videos at our speed dating events to respect everyone's privacy.
