Event Description:
Our exciting event will start with an ice-breaker group activity led by the best matchmaker in Nashville, followed by a time for participants to attract the attention of the singles in their age group.
During the main event, daters and their "wingfriends", will take the stage for a one-minute pitch to share who they are and what they seek. This format is perfect for those who may be shy but have friends to speak for on their behalf and anyone looking to expand their social circle. We will also have an option for people to interact on stage with our matchmaker or to abstain from taking the stage and participate only as part of the audience.
Daters and "Wingfriends" will have distinct name tags for easy identification while mingling, and all participants will receive heart-shaped papers to write notes and contact information, expressing interest in friendship or potential dates. Give someone your note after their pitch.
Messages could include: “I want to be your friend,” “I liked what you said and think we’d get along,” or “If you asked me out, I’d say yes.” Make this message your own and keep it positive.
Our goal is to create numerous new friendships and potential dates. Plus, our matchmaker will listen to your pitch and keep you in mind for her clients!
Enjoy delicious food from the venue and a cash bar. After the activity for your age group, continue conversations downstairs or stay for the next group if space allows.
Additionally, you can get to know our favorite photographer, Brittany Allison of Measurably More Media, and hear her specials for dating profile photoshoots.
We anticipate this will be the best event of the season and hope you can join us!
