Speed Date Michigan - Speed Dating and Dating Events for Singles

F.A.Q.

Here are some questions that might help you:

All the events I want to attend have a waitlist. When can I attend?
A: Sorry! We recommend registering as far ahead as possible and registering for as many events that work for your busy schedule even if you are waitlisted for all. Our event hosts will contact you the moment a spot opens up so make sure your contact information includes a daytime email or cell phone number.

Are there any speed dating success stories?
A: Yes!! Visit our Success Stories & Testimonials

Can I attend an event if I am not in the age category?
A: Our guests can be within 3 years of the range. For example, if you would like to attend our 30-40 group, you must be between 27-43. We are always posting new age categories in different areas so check back if you don't see your age category currently listed.

Can I just show up at the event?
A: Sorry, but no. All events are pre-registered so we can make efforts to have an even amount of men and women. Register now!

Can I pay when I get to the event?
A: To participate in an event, advanced registration and payment is required.

Can I watch an event before I try it?
A: Sorry, no. Our events are closed to the public to allow for a more intimate setting for our guests. We guarantee you'll have a lot of fun so we suggest you jump in and sign up!

Do I have to use a credit card? Can I send a check, money order or pay cash at the door?
A: To register for an event, it is required that you use a credit card. Our system is set up to accept credit cards only. We use a very secure system which encrypts your information, so it is safe to use. It is actually safer than giving your credit card to a waiter at a restaurant. If you do not have a credit card of your own, perhaps you can pay cash to a friend and they can let you use their credit card.

Do you have any tips for success at your events?
A: We suggest that you pretend you are simply going to a party where you'll have a variety of different conversations. Relax, smile, and focus on having fun and keeping it light. Be yourself. Remember that everyone is there for the same reason. This is a great opportunity to meet others that you know for a fact are single and looking! Keep the conversation light because you will be picking up on chemistry, regardless of the topic. We find that people often talk about what they think about speed-dating and what they do in their spare time. You can learn a lot about a person in six minutes, but it's important to approach your dates with the right attitude. Don't expect to find love at first sight. Instead, look for someone who you'd like to simply have another conversation with. Keep in mind that it takes a few dates to really connect with someone, so if you meet someone who has potential, give them a chance! There are questions on your match sheet that we provide to mix things up if you like.

Do you have events for ages 45+?
A: Yes we do! We have large-scale parties at various times in the year. There is food, dancing and lots of fun. Our parties attract a minimum of a 100 men and a 100 ladies. Check back if you don't see a 45+ party currently listed. Or, click here Be on our List to be added to our mailing list and hear about upcoming events!

How do I sign up for an event?
A: Find an event through our Upcoming Events and click on an event to view the details. The details page will have a 'Register For this Event' button. This will guide you through signing up for an event.

How do you define single? Professional??
A: We use the term professional in a more modern sense so not just Doctors and Lawyers. Today's professionals are in a wide variety of fields, are goal oriented and looking for others who are the same.

How many singles will I meet at one event?
A: We work very hard to guarantee a minimum of 10 women, 10 men. It's often more, depending on the night. There will be an even number of men and women.

How much does an event cost?
A: Our typical event is $35. If you are registering for a "party" or larger social mixer, the cost may be more or less depending on the event.

I cannot attend an event I'm registered for. Can I get a refund?
A: Please refer to our cancellation policy

I cannot attend an event I'm registered for. How can I reschedule?
A: Please refer to our rescheduling policy.

I don't feel comfortable giving my credit card # over the internet, is there another way to pay?
A: Sure! Give us a call at 734-560-4138 and we can sign you up over the phone.

I don't have an email address. Can I still attend an event?
A: Due to the nature of our matching system, all guests must have an email address. But don't worry, they are very easy to get. Go to a friend's house, your local library or an internet cafe and sign up for a free email account through Hotmail or Yahoo. It's worth it!

I forgot my discount code online when I made a reservation. Can you give me a credit?
A: Unfortunately once the reservation has been accepted online, we can no longer apply a discount. Save it for next time!

I forgot my username and password.
A: No problem. Just click here, enter your email address and we will email you your username and password now.

The registration form asks for personal information, such as address and phone number. In the event of a match after the event, is all of this information given to the other person? If not, what information is given to the other person?
A: When the participant enters match requests, only the participants first name and email address are supplied to other matches. The information you provide through initially registering for the event is for our information and is kept strictly confidential.

What number am I (or how far down am I) on the waiting list?
A: Our waitlist is constantly changing. People can move up by recruiting a member of the opposite gender, so even if you are next on the waiting list it's possible that others could move ahead of you if they sign up as a pair. Because of its changing nature we do not provide customers with their current number on the waiting list.

What should I wear to a speed dating event?
A: You want to dress to impress, but nothing to formal. We suggest business casual. Wear something that you feel good and comfortable in.

When do you post new events on your website?
A: New events are posted regularly. Check back to our website often as new events may be added or spots may open up in previously sold out events.

Will I meet attractive Men/Women?
A: We have a reputation for attracting nice-looking, interesting people who are comfortable meeting others in a face-to-face environment. The consistent feedback we receive is, "Wow, that was so much fun!"
