How Matchmaking Works

How Matchmaking Works

Matchmaking takes the guesswork — and the gamble — out of meeting someone. A professional gets to know you, verifies and hand-selects the people you meet, and supports you the whole way. Here's exactly how it works, from first chat to first date.

From First Chat to First Date

  1. A free, no-obligation chat

    Tell us about you and the kind of person you’re hoping to meet. We’ll explain how we work and answer your questions — and send information to read in your own time if you’d like. No pressure, no cost.

  2. Verification

    Before anyone joins, we confirm ID, age and address, take or receive two recent photos, and run background checks — including residency and any reported fraud or financial crime. It’s the step online dating skips, and the reason our introductions are safe.

  3. Your matchmaking consultation

    A relaxed, in-depth conversation with an experienced matchmaker — usually by video, or in person at your home, a convenient location, or our Warwickshire office. We get to know you properly and talk through exactly what you’re looking for.

  4. Your profile, your approval

    We draw up a detailed profile, including your photos, and only move forward once you’re completely happy with it.

  5. The search begins

    Your matchmaker calls to welcome you, then starts hand-selecting introductions based on real compatibility — not a swipe.

  6. Introductions, feedback & support

    You meet people worth your time. After each date your feedback sharpens the next introduction, and your personal matchmaker is there throughout your membership

"I wanted to update you about how it has been going between ‘D’ and I over the past few months. I am very grateful to have met ‘D’. I really like him and I find him very easy to talk to. I have found ‘D’ to be very caring and intelligent. We usually speak to each other on the phone twice a week or meet up once a week. As we don’t live too far away from each other, it has been easy to find places to meet up that are easy for us both to get to."

"Our client was really pleased with his dating coaching session and said that he thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you. Fingers crossed that all works out for him."

"Dear Karen, Thank you for being so understanding …your help was truly appreciated"

"Hi Karen, Thank you for your email. I had very good feedback from our client. You made a real difference to her life"

"Karen helped me be clear on what type of man and relationship could suit my busy life and juggling teenagers and a job ! Her perceptive questions and tips improved my dating, and how I decide who to date! I now allow myself to see Dating as Fun, not a chore. I have a choice now, and the pressure is off!! I look forward positively to meeting new men, having a fun date, and possibly look forward to a long term meaningful relationship."
