Non-monogamous Speed Dating and Mingling for Couples

Hosted by ENM Matchmaker Victoria and her husband Ryan with Birds of a Feather Matchmaking

Join us for an exceptional evening of connection, thoughtfully curated for couples seeking to meet other like-minded pairs. This semi-exclusive gathering offers a warm and welcoming environment for couples, singles interested in meeting couples, and solo attendees—all coming together to connect with others who share similar interests and values.

We welcome all self-identified women and men, ensuring a diverse and inclusive atmosphere. Our event is perfect for those exploring consensual, non-monogamous relationships, whether you're new to ethical non-monogamy or an experienced practitioner.

Enjoy an exciting evening where you can connect with potential partners and friends who share your values and relationship preferences. We strive to create a fun, respectful environment that fosters meaningful connections.

— We recognize that our events have traditionally used binary gender terms. We acknowledge this may not be welcoming to all members of our community, including our non-binary friends. We are committed to improving our inclusivity and are actively working on creating more inclusive events in the future. For this particular event, we have chosen to maintain its traditional format. We value all members of the LGBTQ+ community and are open to your input on how we can make our future events more welcoming and inclusive for everyone. If you'd like to share your thoughts or expertise on this matter, please contact Victoria.
