What Members Say

Honest words from real people.

“

I was very hesitant about this, and honestly didn't think it was something I wanted to do. Working with Dale completely changed my perspective. He helped me better understand myself, what I truly wanted in a partner, and why we can sometimes be attracted to people who may not actually be the right match. What amazed me most was how spot on Dale was — even after hearing about my friend's experience, I still couldn't believe how right he was about everything. I'm incredibly grateful for his guidance, and most importantly, grateful that I found my partner.

Meet the Founders

Built by people who believe dating
should feel more human.

We created Modern Day Matchmaking because too many great people were being failed by modern dating. Our process looks deeper than preferences, to how people truly connect, what they genuinely need, and whether they're ready to build something real.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know

No one can guarantee chemistry or connection. We guarantee thoughtful, human-curated introductions and a high-touch process focused entirely on your compatibility and readiness. Our commitment is to the quality and intentionality of the process — not a specific outcome.
No. We use an application and review process to protect the quality and balance of our community. Not everyone who applies will be accepted.
Membership opens May 25, 2026. We spend May through August carefully reviewing and building our founding Colorado member pool. The Connection and The Journey packages, which include active curated introductions, open in late August 2026.
Colorado first. We are launching with a focused Colorado community before expanding to additional states. Members open to meeting someone outside their local area may be considered for expanded introductions.
Completely private. You will never have a public profile. Your information is only shared as part of a personally reviewed, consented introduction. We take confidentiality seriously at every step.
Background checks are required for members enrolling in The Connection and The Journey packages before introductions begin. This protects the safety and trust of our entire community.
The Network is our free tier — you join the curated database and may be considered for introductions, but active matching is not guaranteed. The Connection is our first paid tier, where you receive 3 guaranteed, human-curated introductions with matchmaker support over a 3-month contract. The Journey is our premium tier, offering 6 guaranteed introductions with expanded matchmaker support over a 9-month engagement.
Absolutely. Because this is a highly personalized process, we welcome questions before applying. Email us anytime at hello@moderndaymatchmaking.com
