FAQ
Background stuff
How is Simply Matchmaking different than other matchmakers?
We prioritize quality over quantity when it comes to matchmaking. Other matchmakers sometimes require hefty fees for a guaranteed number of dates, which may sound great but it really isn't. Would you want to go on a date just to fulfill someone's quota? We set strict expectations around the philosophy that we absolutely do not guarantee any set amount of matches so we are not wasting people's valuable time sending them out just to check a box. We only match people when we truly believe it is a great mutual fit and aren't incentivized in any other way!
Who picks all the matches you make?
The founders and head matchmakers at Simply Matchmaking are a married couple, Ali and Matt Migliore. They conduct all interviews with potential new members, oversee all of the hand-picked matches, and help provide valuable feedback following dates. They have successfully been matchmaking high caliber, relationship-minded clients since 2005.
What is your success rate?
Since it’s founding in 2005, Simply Matchmaking's matches have resulted in countless long term relationships, engagements, marriages and babies! We believe that a highly personalized approach to matchmaking is the most effective way to help people find their perfect match -- yet everyone is looking for different end results. Our approach lets us truly focus on each person and only match them if we have a great mutual fit who also wants similar things, and almost 85% of the time our match is a great one and they want to see each other again and again!
How did you start matchmaking anyways?
Call it a passion turned reality! We were always the people connecting friends, neighbors, and new acquaintances to one another and realized there was a real need for this type of service in today's world!
Does everyone go through the same process?
Every person sits down with one of our owners for a 90-minute interview so that we get to know who you are and what you are looking for in a partner. Our team will then hand-pick every one of your matches, personally coordinate your dates around your schedule, and help you gain insight on your dating life.
