What people say afterwards
“We met at your singles event in Dublin. Neither of us knew what to expect that night, and we certainly didn't expect to walk away having met someone who'd change everything. We’ve been dating and we’re both really happy and keep finding all these little things in common — the same humour, the same values, the same way of seeing the world. It’s easy in a way neither of us has known before, and it just keeps growing. We can hardly believe our luck. It all started with one of your nights. It takes a lot to put yourself out there again, and the warmth you bring to these events made it fun. You gave two people who might never have crossed paths the chance to find each other, and we’ll always be grateful. Thank you, Dani. You do something really special.
“Thank you for a great evening. Meeting a brilliant group of people — you made it so easy to relax and have fun. Surpassed my expectations.
“Thank you for a brilliant and well organised event. It was fun.
“The last matchmaking event I went to was two years ago and I absolutely hated it, but I felt really supported at your event and like you really want to match us. I’m definitely coming back.
“I really enjoyed the format of the event and thought it was really well done. It was great to loosen up before the one-on-one speed dating. It was a really fun evening. I can also tell you that I met someone at the event… It's going really well… and we've both agreed we're pretty happy we went to the event. So thank you for such an all-round fun evening.
Come as you are.
You don't need to arrive with a group to enjoy Love Éire. Hosted activities, shared experiences and social events make it easier to meet people naturally throughout the weekend.
Matchmaking
Hand-matched. The old-fashioned way.
Personalised matchmaking for people who are ready for something real.
We take a limited number of matchmaking clients at a time, getting to know you properly — what matters to you, how you live, what you value and what you're genuinely looking for. We look beyond the photograph and the profile to understand the person behind them.
Our approach combines modern relationship understanding with a little old-fashioned romance: thoughtful introductions, real conversations and people chosen with care — not an algorithm.
How it works
1
Apply
Tell us a little about yourself, your life and the kind of relationship you're hoping to find.
2
We review
We personally review every application — looking for genuine compatibility, shared values, lifestyle fit and the potential for meaningful connection.
3
We talk
If we think Love Éire matchmaking could be a good fit, we'll contact you to arrange a short conversation and learn more about you.
4
We recommend
We'll recommend the matchmaking approach that's right for you — from a focused introduction experience to a more personalised journey.
5
We introduce
When we believe there's a potentially meaningful connection, we'll make a thoughtful introduction. We won't introduce you to someone simply for the sake of making a match.
6
Your Love Story
You take it from here — with your own boundaries and standards. We encourage the connection; you build, appreciate and celebrate it for the long term.
Ready to meet with intention?
We take a limited number of clients at a time so that every matchmaking experience receives the attention it deserves.
Quality over quantity. Connection over convenience. People over profiles.
Celebrate love
Find love. Then keep celebrating it.
Our dating events are exclusively for singles. Once you find love — or if you're already happily committed, keep celebrating it. Appreciate your partner for good.
Blind Date Night
A live blind dating show exclusively inside an in-person Love Éire singles event. You register, we find three candidates, and you simply show up for a blind date show.
Join Blind DateFind Your Irish Match
For single people in Ireland, the Irish abroad and those who love Ireland — meet someone with the same accent in their heart.
