How It Works

On The Day Of The Event

You will receive a reminder email confirming the event details - it's time to get ready, look fabulous and head to the event. Aim to arrive as close to the start time so you can meet as many True Daters as possible. Late comers may not be able to participate. When you arrive at the venue, ask the staff for the True Dating party and you'll be directed to our privately reserved area. Our fantastic host will be on hand to warmly welcome you and answer any questions you may have.

During The Event

On arrival our host will give you a name badge and explain how the event works. You will typically have up to 15 dates, each last 4 minutes. Ladies will stay at the same table and gentlemen will rotate. As the dates go, you will make a note of each date on your scorecard so you can remember them when entering your matches after the event. Usually there will be a 15-minute break halfway through. As the event comes to an end, feel free to stick around, hang out and hopefully get a chance to pick up where you left off with one or two of your favourite dates!

After The Event

Here's where the magic begins! Login to your True Dating account and enter your matches. You'll come across three choices: "Love," "Friend," or "No." Choose the one that best describes your connection with each match. Make sure to enter your matches by 4 pm, as this marks the start of our online pairing process. And guess what? If the stars align and you both select "Love" for each other, it's a mutual match! 🌟 Then you can start chatting with each other using our secure messaging service. Who knows? You might just be on your way to planning date #2, and we'll be here cheering you on every step of the way!

So, why not come along? 90% of our attendees get at least one match at our events. And if you don't, we guarantee your next event will be free!
