Perfectdates Speed Dating
Australia's Biggest Speed Dating Events with over 100 singles at each event.
21 - 50 with 3 age groups
Speed Dating was invented in 1998 in Los Angeles by Rabbi Yaacov Deyo as a way for Jewish singles to meet, it has since spread and is now the latest craze sweeping the world. Where else can you date 12 singles in one night? Speed Dating allows you to date more singles in one night than most people would date in a year, whilst having an absolute ball!
If you’re not happy with the amount of professional singles that you are meeting who are willing and interested in talking to you, you have two options. You can keep doing what you have always done and watch the opportunities pass you by or you can decide to take action to live the life you truly deserve. The choice is yours.
Perfectdates has taken the idea of Speed Dating to the next level, with outstanding personalised service, and attention to detail. Perfectdates events are held on Friday or Saturday nights so that you have a chance to enjoy the evening without worrying about work the next day, and you can always go out afterwards with your new found friends.
At Perfectdates we know that you will have the time of your life making new friends and perhaps meeting your dream date. Perfectdates events are fun, safe ways to meet lots of new singles. Perfectdates hosts will contact you the next morning with your matches so you won't have to ask anyone for their phone number and with a 95% success rate we guarantee that you will get at least one match.Click here to read the Perfectdates guarantee.
The “Speed Dating” Event starts at 7.00pm sharp, so arrive 10 minutes early, Katia or Greg will then escort you to your table, where all the fun will commence!!
There, beverages (a bit of Dutch courage!) and delicious finger food will be served to set the mood for this fantastic night out!!
Once all settled, we will briefly outline the procedure of the evening and then .... the "Speed Dating" will commence!!!
“Speed Dating” allows you to date 12 singles in a night, spending an eight-minute “mini date” with each one.
At the end of the eight minutes you get to decide if there was a connection and if you would like to exchange phone numbers with your “mini date”.
Perfectdates hosts will contact you the next morning with your matches so you won't have to ask anyone for their phone number.
Beverages and of course, chocolate will be provided throughout the evening to keep you feeling great!!! We will also be having a 30 minute interval at half time for a refresher and drink break.
"Speed Dating" will then continue until completed. Upon conclusion of the "Speed Dating" event, our Perfectdates hosts will exchange phone numbers of willing parties, discretely.
After all that if you still want more and would like to meet the other Perfectdates attendees (and we are sure that you will!) you are invited to kick on at a nearby bar/club...just perfect for more drinks, chats and dance for those with a little more energy to disperse!!!
A perfect way to end a perfect evening!
Then it's all up to you. Good luck!!
Congratulations to Claire Styrling and Mark Wilson, who have just announced their engagement after meeting at our Speed Dating Event on October 26th 2004.

feedback
I was
stumbling my way through the internet when I came across your website and
realised I had never thanked you for introducing me to my (now) wife of 3 years
and consequently my 15 month daughter Emerald.
I attended
1 of your meets at the Grace Darling Hotel back in October 2003 along with 2
other friend's. I never wanted to go in the first place as I thought it would
be a futile attempt at meeting somebody but through much persuasion from my
friends I was dragged down there that fateful night. Well........ There were
quite a mix of women there that night most of whom were pretty uninteresting to
me except for 1.
Her name
was
I knew we
were going to be a successful couple and have been ever since. We now live in
Templestowe with our daughter (Emerald) and are currently planning for another.
I just
wanted you to know we are grateful for your help and hope Perfect Dates help to bring
many more people together as it did us.
Thank you
Katia as I hope this brightens your day
Regards,

"I went to one of your functions in early December 2004, yes 2004.
That night
i met a Lady called Natalie and we have been seeing each other since. We went
to NZ last July/August and after the trip Nat moved in with me, we are now
expecting our first child in June, sothanks to YOU we are both very happy and
have told
many people about your service.
Thanks very much

I
never wanted to go but my silly step sister made me.
Standing
at the bar a girl assisted me with more beer.( some one I had not sat with
yet).
This
lady was next. We sat. She told me to shut up and stuffed a chocolate in my
mouth.
We
dated once. We both parked in the same spot and in the same cars (4WD land

"Thank
you Katia. I truly had a fun evening. You and your team were terrific and have
made many people take a step towards meeting other singles in an environment
that is not intimidating but relaxed and full of smiling faces.
We
may not find a connection but we have walked away with much laughter and
stories to share!

parking
Being early on a Saturday night there should be plenty of free
street parking especially if you head away from Flinders St. However it's
good idea to leave yourself enough time to find yourself a park. Paid
parking is also available on the corner of Little Bourke St and Ramsay St
($7 flat rate, bring coins).

what makes perfectdates different?
Perfectdates has taken the idea of Speed Dating to the next level, with outstanding personalised service, and attention to detail. At Perfectdates, it is our attention to the little things that makes the big difference. Unlike most Speed Dating events Perfectdates events are held on Friday or Saturday nights so that you have a chance to enjoy the evening without worrying about work the next day, and we don’t send you home at 10.00pm. Our events run from 8.00pm to midnight with the option of going out afterwards with your newfound friends, which gives you plenty of time to mingle with all of the guests.
Because we understand that dating can be a daunting experience, Perfectdates hosts will be there to offer advice and support throughout the evening, to ensure that your evening with Perfectdates is a night to remember. You’ll have the time of your life meeting lots of professional singles and making new friends.
We will also provide you with a list of questions or “cheat sheets” in case you get lost for words.
what is speed dating?
Speed Dating allows you to "date" 12 singles in an evening, spending an 8-minute "mini date" with each one.
The eight minutes are spent busily getting to know each other and allow you to decide if there is a connection. We will provide you with a list of questions or "cheat sheets" in case you get lost for words.
At the end of the eight minutes the bell rings, you move on to the next "date" and you get to decide if you want to see your "mini date" again, by ticking their name in your Perfectdates folder.
Of course it works both ways, numbers are only exchanged if there is a match and your "mini date" feels the same way. Perfectdates hosts will provide you with phone numbers in the event of a match at the end of the evening, so you can be assured that your contact details will be safe.
Perfectdates Speed Dating, eight minutes of your life that could change your life.
Gay Speed Dating is held on a separate night and works slightly differently because once you've been on your 10 "mini dates" you still have 9 more potential dates to meet and get to know throughout the evening.
i’m worried about not getting picked. what are the odds of getting a match?
With 12 dates in one night and a 95% success rate the odds are definitely stacked in your favour. At Perfectdates, because we are 100% committed to helping you find the partner of your dreams if you don’t get any matches, we will offer you flirt coaching (valued at $110.00) free of charge.
Learn the best possible flirting and communication tips from the Experts.
Offer valid only if you tick one or more Speed Daters on the night.
how are the people in the group selected?
Potential dates are selected according to age groups, interests and sexual
preference, and due to the popularity of Speed Dating on a first come first
served basis.
Gay Speed Dating is held on a separate night.
what are the age groups?
The Perfectdates age groups are 24 – mid thirties, and late thirties
+, although we will subdivide the age groups depending on your preference.
It’s your night so let us know your preferred age group.
what if I'm interested in people that are outside of my age group?
At Perfectdates we understand that your likes and dislikes are as individual as you are.
To cater for this Perfectdates Speed Dating Evenings have more than one age group running at a time.
There will be plenty of time to mingle with other speed daters throughout the evening and at the end of the Speed Dating guests are invited to a nearby club / bar for the rest of the evening, giving you the perfect opportunity to meet and mingle with the other guests.
i'm 42 and haven't "dated" for 6 years, is this for me?
At Perfectdates, we have events for all age groups, so as long as you are over 18 and single we will have the perfect event for you.
Because we understand that dating can be a daunting experience, Perfectdates hosts will be there to offer advice and support throughout the evening, to ensure that your evening with Perfectdates is a night to remember.
We will also provide you with a list of questions or "cheat sheets" in case you get lost for words.
am i obligated to give out my phone number?
At Perfectdates you decide if you want to see your “mini date” again by ticking their name in your Perfectdates folder. Of course it works both ways and numbers are only exchanged if there is a match and your “mini date” feels the same way.
when do i get my matches?
Hosts will call you the next day with your matches so you won't have to ask anyone for their phone number.
if i don't find someone am i obligated to come back?
You are under no obligation to come to another Perfectdates event, but we are sure that you'll have such a fantastic time that you will want to come back.
can i bring my friends with me?
As Perfectdates evenings are great fun we are sure that you will want to bring your friends along, however bookings are essential for all Perfectdates events. Don’t forget that if you bring 3 or more friends with you, you get to come for free.
