Elevated Introductions

Friends (and select presenters) will introduce high-quality, relationship-minded singles (ages 30+) through short, thoughtful pitches that highlight who someone is on a deeper level, beyond quick, surface-level facts.

The evening is designed to create ease, warmth, and genuine connection for all attendees. Guests ages 21–30 are welcome to attend as observers.

Evening Itinerary:
30 minutes of arrival, check-in, drinks, and mingling
A brief 5-minute talk on the art of dating
Guided pitches and presentations (3 minutes max per pitch) with a curated break in the middle
Relaxed, open mingling

For the first time, attendees may also choose to have themselves pitched by a presenter, a unique option that removes awkward self-promotion while maintaining integrity and intention.

Whether you come to pitch a friend, be pitched, or simply meet others in a more grounded, human way, this event is for singles who are ready to date with depth.

Expect:
A thoughtful, welcoming atmosphere
Relationship-oriented singles
Structure that creates ease, not pressure
An upscale rooftop venue

Hosted by a former therapist and lead dating consultant from Next Level Dating.
