PRICE?

For your ticket price you will get a chance to meet and mingle with upwards of 40+ fellow Christians, receive a complimentary drink, a chance to win various prizes, supporting a Christian owned location in Waterloo, and to maybe even meet the one.

At our 2023 spring event we had almost 100 people and some great connections were made.

We also had another event in Burlington in May with 80 single Christians and another great night / connections.

And another in July and October with around 80 single Christians at the same venue, etc. Another two great events. (some pictures at the bottom) ...

(and another successful speed dating even with 21 men and 21 women in Waterloo recently - also at the Covenant Cafe).

And another coming up on the 29th of December in Scarborough.

We have also had two more successful speed dating events in Hamilton and London, etc. in the last little while.

Also prior to the pandemic - at our speed dating event - with only 15 men and 15 women - one couple actually got married ;) - because they met at our event and quickly fell in love thereafter.

There is a picture of the engagement ring below - Will and Crystal - met 2020, engaged in 2021.

The price of an average date is $100, so this is quite the deal, seeing as it costs us money to rent the space, provide punch, prizes (various), our invested time, etc.


WHO IS THIS FOR?

This is a mini mixer event / speed dating event for single Christians (aged 29-47).

Where there can be some exceptions to this age as well - reach out.

Based on the main ages responding I will adjust things accordingly and will update everyone. We will have a speed dating element where you will have mini one on one dates for around 5 minutes to get to know other single Christians in your age range, along with some other fun mini mixer elements to get everyone interacting, etc.

You are a guy looking to meet a nice girl and vice versa.

If you are outside of the age range / this is too far away / can't make it, but still interested please email us at connected.speed.dating@gmail.com or reach out on Instagram @connected_speed_dating - Let us know where you are located.

We can't promise you will meet "the one", but perhaps you will meet someone who will introduce you to the one - maybe their friend, cousin, co-worker, etc.

We know the idea of meeting strangers is a bit awkward and intimidating but it's a great way to meet like minded members of the opposite sex.

We will make it fun. We promise. You're single and wanting to meet someone ... what do you have to lose?

Plus, hanging out with, having fun with, and trying to date other people who love Jesus is a good thing.

Spots are limited.

ONCE YOU HAVE REGISTERED ON HERE AND HAVE SENT YOUR $40 (early bird) $45 (regular) via email transfer to connected.speed.dating@gmail.com (use password = single) YOUR SPOT WILL BE SECURED. You will also receive an email confirmation and updates via email. ;)


WHAT WILL HAPPEN AT THE EVENT?

https://www.instagram.com/covenant_cafe

This is a great Christian owned cafe in Waterloo, Ontario.

The offical event will run from 7:00 pm until 10:00 pm.

You will be greeted by your Host, Josh, where he will check off that you have arrived, provide you with your complimentary drink, a chance to start mingling, etc.

Once a majority of people have arrived our host will explain how the evening will run.

Where we will lead into the Speed Dating Portion of the night.

From here Josh will be mingling with the crowd and making sure everyone is having a good time. You will have a chance to meet all kinds of new people, chat, flirt, have a drink or two, purchase some delicious baked goods, play some fun games, maybe even win a prize, or even meet the one?, etc.

Again part of this might be that that person is not the one but never know who they know / if any other networking that could come out of it, etc.

Time allowing, we will play a few other fun games throughout the night for a chance to interact and win some prizes. By the end you will have definitely met every person there.


WHAT TO WEAR?

We want you to wear whatever makes you feel comfortable.

What would you wear on a chilled out Saturday evening first date? Big first impression opportunity...so let's look snazzy.

Your host Josh will be wearing dress pants, a dress shirt and potentially a tie or jacket, but he's the host.

So, wear whatever you feel comfortable and confident in.


LOCATION? / WHERE CAN I PARK? / WAYS TO GET THERE ...

There is tons of parking right on site and close by.
