About Calgary Speed Dating's History
Calgary Speed Dating was created by Cathy Brewer January 2001. Calgary’s first registered speed dating company, Calgary Speed Dating, has served thousands of people over the last 8 years. We’re looking to increase that in the next 9 years.
Does Speed Dating Really Work?
Yes, it wored for us.
Calgary Speed Dating has introduced many couples. It even worked for a 2nd couple who met at our same event who married last summer.
How We Met
We (Catherine and Don) met at one of Cathy Brewer's speed dating events in October 2007. We took over Calgary Speed Dating in May of 2008 when Cathy moved to B.C.. We want everyone to have the success we've found.
Expanding Your Dating Circles
Don and I sat down one day to brainstorm. We wanted to see if it was possible that we would have met through friends, business, colleagues, clubs or our existing social circles. There were none! If we had not met through Calgary Speed Dating, we never would have met.
We chose to take over the company and help other Calgary Singles meet each other who may never have the opportunity to meet without it.
Was it love at first sight?
Oh, sure! Just like in the movies!
In reality, we matched with each other and other people as well. However, in only a few short months we knew we had something special and made it exclusive and have been together ever since.
While I have seen a few ‘love at first sight’ couples meet at speed dating, it does happen. The majority are relationships that is built on common ground; meeting in person, spending time and building something wonderful together.
What’s next?
While keeping what works, we do look for new, fun things to try and ways to improve. We welcome comments and suggestions at cathy@CalgarySpeedDating.com . |
