With our cast iron Speed Dating guarantee that you will meet at least one person you will want to see again, you know you will be successful Speed Dating. All Slow Dating speed dating events are held in carefully chosen upmarket bars. Come Speed Dating London or elsewhere in the UK with us, and you will enjoy a fun evening and date 15-20 like-minded single professional people interested in meeting you.
Speed Dating is ideal for those of us who lead busy lives, don't have much time and want to meet new people in a fun, safe environment.
How does the whole thing work?
It's an opportunity to meet and date 15-20 people your age, who are serious about wanting to be in a relationship. You will date each person for four minutes, giving you the opportunity to decide if you may want to see that person again.
Is four minutes per date long enough?
Four minutes turns out to be the perfect amount of time. Four minutes is short enough to leave your date wanting more if they are interested, relieving them of any hesitation at exchanging follow up information. Four minutes is also not too long if the other person turns out to be a disaster.
We want you to have not only a fun, but ultimately a successful evening. At Slow Dating, we don't want to rush you. We feel that three minutes is too short a time with all the moving between tables and the note taking. We strongly believe that four minutes is the right amount of time to decide whether you're prepared to invest more time in follow up emails and phone calls to land a real date with someone you meet at one of our events. Four minutes per date also enables you to meet 15-20 dates in one night without getting completely worn out.
How many dates will I get at a Slow Dating event?
You can expect a minimum of fifteen dates. You will normally get twenty dates depending on the venue location. Any more dates and you would probably be exhausted.
Why do I need to book in advance?
We need to ensure an even balance of men and women. As a professional organisation, we also need to ensure that the event is not oversubscribed.
What happens when I arrive at the event?
When you arrive you will be welcomed, checked in and given a personalised numbered name badge and a pen and invited to have a drink at the bar. You will be made to feel comfortable. When everyone has arrived one of our organisers will do a short introductory welcoming speech, explain some of the logistics, explain how to use your Speeding Ticket and so on and reaffirm that we are here to make sure you have a good time.
What happens next?
Once the dating part of the evening starts, those with badge number one will start at table number one, those with badge number two at table number two and so on. After four minutes, we ring a bell, the girls will stay seated and all the guys will move round one table. This continues (with a twenty minute half time break) until you have met everyone there.
What if I like someone?
During the evening, simply enter a tick on the Speeding Ticket corresponding to the person you like to indicate you may want to see that person again. The following day you can either sign in to the web site and enter your choices directly, or call the office on 0870 224 2828 and one of the team can enter your ticks for you.
How will I know if I get any matches?
After attending an event, simply visit the web site and enter your ticks online and you will be able to see how many people have entered their ticks, how many have ticked you and who has matched with you. Our matching engine ensures that you will also be sent an instant email and sms text message whenever someone you have ticked visits the site and ticks you, thus creating a match.
You can of course visit the site at any time to get the latest details. Chances are that you will be pleasantly surprised as to how many matches you will get.
Can you tell me if X ticked me? Can I have their contact details?
Speed Dating works by putting people who match in touch with each other. If you have matched with someone, you will be able to contact them again. To protect everyone involved we will not forward anyone's details unless there is a match.
I don't have an email address, can I still join in?
Yes. We cater for everyone whether you have an email address or not. Simply use your mobile number in place of an email address. We can then keep you up to date with Instant Match SMS text messages after an event, upcoming events and special offers.
Do many people come on their own?
About a third do - we make a point of ensuring our organisers will make sure you are comfortable. If you do come alone, don't be afraid to chat to other daters before the dating starts. Everyone will be very friendly and other people who are alone will welcome you chatting to them too.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes of course. Many do for moral support and to help overcome those understandable nerves. Depending upon the venue, we can normally accommodate your friends who want to come along but not participate. There is generally no charge for "guests". Please contact us for confirmation.
How long does each event last?
We do our best to keep the event running to schedule which means the event will last just under two hours including a twenty minute half time breather. Generally an event will start at 7.30pm and finish between 9.45 and 10pm.
How should I dress for speed dating?
We do not operate a strict dress code, however we generally advise to dress 'Smart Casual'. Be yourself. This is not a fashion show. Wear what you are comfortable with but don't forget that first impressions count!
Why don't you do events for, ahem, older people?
It is a case of supply and demand. We do cater for our more mature, more experienced customers by running the occassional event for 40somethings and upwards. If you are no longer a spring chicken but there is still plenty of life in you, all you have to do is email us to let us know where you want us to run events and we will do our best to arrange something.
How strict are the age ranges?
Relatively strict. If the age range for example is 26-34 then you are going to be out of place if you are in your forties. However if you are 36 or so and accept the age range then you are likely to fit in better and enjoy the evening.
How much does it cost?
Depending upon the venue we hire, it's typically £20 or £25 for all your evening's entertainment, and feedback from previous attendees show that over 90% feel that represents good or excellent value.
Can I cancel?
Yes - provided you contact us by email or phone at least five days before the event you will be refunded in full - no questions asked! If you give us three to five days notice we will do our best to move you to another event for which you will be charged a £10 handling fee per booking. If you cancel 3 days or less prior to the event, there will be no refund. If you are the legal type and need to know the full details you could always check our comprehensive cancellation policy.
