Sparks Speed Dating: Where Chemistry Meets Connection!
Are you ready to meet your match in minutes?
At Sparks Speed Dating, we create classy, engaging events designed for meaningful connections. If you’re frustrated with online dating, speed dating offers an exciting and effective alternative. It’s fun, efficient, and gives you the best chance to meet like-minded singles in a pressure-free environment. So why not give it a try?
How It Works
1
Fill out the Questionnaire
Personalized Matches
All participants must complete a Match Assessment Questionnaire as the first step. The questionnaire helps us understand each individual’s values, interests, and lifestyle. Once completed, responses will be analyzed to group participants with others who share compatible traits.
2
Event invite!
Meet Your Matches
Participants will receive an invitation to a speed dating event based on their matchmaking assessment. They may accept or decline the invite. To confirm attendance, a non-refundable $65 fee is required. Once the event reaches maximum capacity, no additional participants can register.

Dating Time
The Event
Upon arrival, participants sign in, receive a name tag, and can grab a drink before heading to their designated areas. Each person is assigned a table. There are 12 rounds, each lasting 7 minutes. A one-minute warning signals the end of each round. After each round, men rotate to the next table. There will be a 5 minute break between every 4th round.

Customize
Customizable Portfolios
At check-in, each participant will receive a packet with their scorecards. The scorecards are exchanged at the start of each round. Scorecards are used to record impressions, indicate interest, provide feedback, and share contact information. Event coordinators will collect and pass out scorecards at the end of the event.
What We Do
Sparks Speed Dating is a combination of matchmaking and speed dating. We use matchmaking to offer a tailored approach for those seeking deeper, more meaningful relationships by considering individual preferences, values, and relationship goals. While our speed dating events provide a structured yet fun way for singles to meet face-to-face, fostering organic connections and breaking down barriers in an engaging social setting.
Our Values
At Sparks Speed Dating, we believe love knows no boundaries. Our mission is to create an inclusive, welcoming space where adults of all backgrounds, and gender identities can connect authentically. We go beyond fleeting encounters, fostering meaningful conversations that ignite lifelong connections. By embracing diversity and celebrating every unique love story, we aim to redefine modern dating—one spark at a time.
Here’s Why Speed Dating Can Be More Beneficial Than Online Dating
1
Instant Chemistry Check
Meeting people face-to-face, allows you to assess chemistry in a way that online interactions can’t replicate. Body language, eye contact, and real-time conversation help determine compatibility much faster.
2
No Catfishing or Misrepresentation
Unlike online dating, where people can use outdated or misleading photos, speed dating ensures you meet the real person immediately.
3
Time-Saving
Instead of spending weeks or months messaging back and forth, you get to meet multiple potential matches in a single event. If there’s no connection, you move on quickly without investing unnecessary emotional energy.
4
Less Ghosting & Game Playing
Speed dating eliminates much of the flakiness seen in online dating. Since everyone is there to meet in person, there’s less ghosting and more genuine interest.
7
Less Superficial Judgments
In online dating, people often make snap decisions based on profile pictures. Speed dating allows for a more holistic first impression, including personality, humor, and energy.
5
Encourages Social Skills & Confidence
Meeting multiple people in one night helps improve conversation skills and builds confidence in face-to-face interactions, which online messaging often lacks.
8
Everyone is Serious About Dating
People attending speed dating events are generally serious about finding a partner, unlike online dating, where some users are just browsing or looking for casual encounters.
6
Safer & More Secure
Since speed dating happens in a controlled environment, it reduces the risks of meeting strangers alone. This is a significant advantage compared to online dating, where meeting someone for the first time can be risky.
9
Saves Money!
According to a LendingTree survey, the average cost of a first date in the United States is around $77. Speed dating cost $49.50 to meet at least 10 dates.
