Q&A

EVENT INFO

  • $25. You’re here to meet someone special, not break the bank.

    Pricing may vary slightly from city to city.

    The fee helps us cover the costs of organizing these events, paying our dedicated Luvvly remote hosts, and continuously improving your experience.

    Prices subject to change.

  • Yes! Hit the ‘waitlist’ button next to the event of your choice and fill in your contact info. We’ll notify you via text if a spot opens up.

  • The success of our events and the experience of all attendees depend on every participant's commitment. We kindly ask that you ensure there are no schedule conflicts prior to registering for Luvvly Dating.

    If you decide to cancel, you MUST let us know at hi@luvvlydating.com

    All Sales Final: We do not provide refunds.     Cancellations are non-refundable.

    No-Show:     No shows and late cancellations are very detrimental to the experience of other participants. If you do not show up without any notice or reasoning, you'll automatically incur a $50 fee and may be permanently banned from participating in all future events.

    Late Cancellations: We need ample notice to be able to fill your spot. All cancellations within 3 hours of the event start time will automatically result in a $50fee. Repeated last-minute cancellations may lead to a permanent ban.

    Leaving Early: Leaving in the middle of an event will incur a $50 fee. If you are experiencing an emergency, are suddenly unwell, or feel unsafe, we will waive the fee at our discretion. Please ensure your schedule allows you to enjoy the full event duration.

    Timely communication is key!

    Your commitment, communication, and understanding are instrumental in ensuring we can continue to create great dating experiences.

    If you need to cancel, let us know by sending an email to hi@luvvlydating.com.

    Please include your name, event date, and ‘Cancellation’ in the subject line.

  • Please arrive 10-15 minutes early, as our events always start on time.

    Remember, we are not an app; our events are managed remotely by a real person who will be busy confirming attendance and organizing round pairings. Timely communication is key!

    If you're running behind or cannot make it, you MUST give us a heads up.

    Without a response by the pairing deadline, you'll be removed from the participation list and will not be able to join in. Late arrivals without notice will be marked as no-shows and will automatically incur a $50 fee.

    We cannot add you back into the event once it has started, as this disrupts the round pairings.

    If you're running a few minutes late, we can usually accommodate you, but we need to know in advance.

  • Please ensure your age matches the event's specified age range. Our age ranges allow a 2-year flexibility above or below the specified range for events.

    Example: If you're 24 and interested in an event for ages 26-32, you can still attend thanks to our 2-year flexibility rule. This also applies if you're 34.

  • “Straight” events do not require you to be entirely heterosexual but set the expectation that you’ll be dating the opposite sex. Think of it as men seeking women / women seeking men.

    "Queer Women" events set the expectation for same-sex dates, women seeking women.

    “Queer Men” events set the expectation for same-sex dates, men seeking men.

    "Bisexual" and "Pansexual" events offer a mix of date pairings.

    All Luvvly events are open to everyone, regardless of gender identity or orientation. Many of our Luvvlies who are bisexual, trans, or non-binary enjoy attending both queer and straight events.

    When joining, we recommend choosing the event type that best matches your preferences and who you are seeking. If you’re unsure, just shoot us an email and we’ll be happy to help! 😊

  • Most events last about 2 hours. 

    You’ll have 8-10 minutes to connect with each date, a couple of minutes between each round and a short intermission mid-event if there are over 6 dates.

    Please refrain from booking unless you can commit to the full event.

  • This rarely happens.
    In the case it does, you’ll have the option to “ping” your date. If that doesn’t help simply text your host and they’ll assist. Likely, your date is just in the restroom.
    In the unlikely scenario your date has left, that ‘round’ will simply be a break for you.

  • Luvvly events consistently book out in advance with full waitlists, guaranteeing 6-9 dates at any event. Despite no-show fees and effective communication, rare last-minute cancellations can disrupt the participant ratio. If we don’t have enough time to fill the spot, we adjust by simply implementing break rounds.

    In the case the turnout is lower than 6 dates, which almost never happens, we’ll offer a partial credit for the inconvenience.

    On the very rare occasion where attendance gets so low that we can’t offer a quality experience, we’ll give you ample notice and cancel the event, offering you a choice of a credit transfer or full refund.

    To help us in delivering great dating experiences, please notify us as early as possible if you're unable to attend by emailing us at hi@luvvlydating.com.

    Your timely communication greatly helps in maintaining the high standard we have for Luvvly Dating experiences.

  • On the day of your event, your remote host will text you to the number you registered with. This will be your sole method of communication with your remote host leading up to and during the event.

    Please double check that your number is correct when registering.

    If you have any questions prior to the event or do not hear from your remote host on the day of, please email us at hi@luvvlydating.

GUIDELINES AND SAFETY

  • Wear what makes you feel good. Think of it as a casual first date over coffee/ drinks.

  • We reserve the right to remove any participant from an event for inappropriate behavior without a refund. This includes disruptive conduct, failure to respect others, or any violation of the following Ground Rules.

    Luvvly Etiquette and Ground Rules:

    1. Do NOT share, ask for, or provoke the sharing of personally sensitive information (contact, address, etc.). All connections will be facilitated by Luvvly through our secure and private matching process, ensuring you only share information with those you wish to connect with. This promotes a low-pressure dating experience.

    2. Do NOT engage with other participants in a way that harms them or makes them feel uncomfortable. If you feel uncomfortable, report the incident directly to your remote host via text or phone call.

    3. No harassment, discrimination, or offensive behavior is tolerated. Prioritize consent, respect boundaries, and be kind, empathetic, and respectful to your dates. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone and take reports of misconduct seriously. Respect and decency are expected at all times, regardless of attraction.

    4. While some venues may serve alcohol, participants are expected to monitor their consumption. Intoxicated or belligerent behavior will not be tolerated.

    Failure to comply with Luvvly's Etiquette and rules will result in a permanent ban from all future events, with Luvvly and the coordinating venue taking further appropriate action as necessary.

  • Your safety and comfort are our absolute priorities. Our events operate without a physical host and we take extra precautions to ensure a safe and comfortable dating experience. Here's how:

    1. Our events are always held in public spaces during operating hours.

    2. If you encounter any participants violating our 'Luvvly Etiquette,' you can report them in real time by promptly texting your remote host or sending an email to hi@luvvlydating.com.

    3. We maintain close contact with our venues, ensuring a point of contact is available on-site should any situation arise.

    4. All participants agree to and are expected to follow our 'Luvvly Etiquette and Ground Rules'.

  • By participating in Luvvly Dating events, you acknowledge and agree that the event may be photographed and/or filmed. Your attendance serves as consent for the use of any photographs and videos taken at the event in marketing and promotional materials, without any personal identifying information being attached.

  • We strive to foster a safe and welcoming environment at all Luvvly Dating events. However, it's important to understand that, similar to any public outing, we cannot guarantee 100% safety. Participation in Luvvly Dating events means you will interact with other attendees, venue staff, and possibly individuals not participating in our events. Please be aware that Luvvly Dating does not conduct background checks on participants.

    Our events are hosted in various third-party venues, such as cafes, bars, or restaurants, which are not owned or operated by Luvvly Dating. Please note that Luvvly Dating staff is not present on-site during any events. Our events are solely run remotely by a remote host.

    Luvvly Dating and its affiliates shall not be liable for any damages, injuries, or harm resulting from your participation in our events or any related activities, including but not limited to, traveling to and from venues. Your decision to attend our events is made with the understanding that you do so at your own risk, akin to visiting any public venue on your own.

    By participating in a Luvvly Dating event, you acknowledge and accept these terms, understanding the inherent risks involved in public social interactions and venue-based activities.

    We thank you for your understanding and look forward to providing you with unique dating experiences.

MATCH INFO

  • Once you've met all of your dates, your remote host will send you a match form to fill out.

    Match results will be sent via text within 24 hours of the event. You’ll get results even if you did not have any mutual matches.

    We take your privacy seriously, responses are confidential and will only be shared if a mutual match occurs.

    Confidence in Matching: To avoid human error, all mutual matches are automatically populated based on your match form submissions.

    Luvvly is not responsible for any interactions outside of our events.

  • Dating is highly personal, it's okay if you don't match every time—don't be discouraged! We want you to connect with the right ones, not just anyone.

    While many of our events participants see at least one match, the focus shouldn't solely be on the outcome of a single event.

    Each event varies; sometimes everyone finds a match, other times not. Yet, many attendees enjoy the experience of meeting and connecting with new people in person, regardless of whether they find a match every time.

    We believe finding the right person starts with investing in yourself. Although we don’t offer personal advice or coaching services we’ve assembled a list of top romance gurus, quizzes, courses and more on our website's learn page! This is intended as a free resource for anyone looking to learn and grow themselves.

  • We’re here to help.
