  There is a lack of sweets and name tags would be a good idea.

  Can be a little bit more hyped by the organisers, was very confused getting in and checking in, seemed a bit under prepared. But once it was going it was good! Definitely needed more than 4min and definitely needed 1 min between to make notes!!

  Host was friendly and efficient but were problems with the website / app which meant selections could not be entered until after emailing you for support. Everyone that attended was polite and friendly.

  I enjoyed how relaxed the event was and everyone was vey easy going and nice. The reason i've given 4 out of 5 is because it took 2 days before we could make our selection.

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating Ipswich lies in its no-nonsense approach. You take an equal number of single girls and guys, put them in a room and give them a few minutes to chat with every other member of the opposite sex.

When you get there

Original speed dating events in Ipswich normally begin at 7.30pm. You will need to register with our hosts and to begin with they will issue you with a score sheet. This will help you to keep track of the singles that you would like to meet again and perhaps go on a date with. After a short period of mingling, your host for the evening who will run through detailed instructions and give you your starting position if you are a guy or table for the event if you are girl.

Meet & Mingle

An Ipswich speed dating event is split into two halves, each lasting around an hour, there will be an interval at half time of about 15 minutes. You will have between 4 and 5 minutes with each person, after which you need to tick a box on your score sheet - "yes, I would like to meet this person again" or "no. Thanks but no thanks". Or "friend" if you'd like to get to know them platonically. Make sure that you do this after each date to keep track. Afterwards there is an opportunity for everyone to meet and mingle informally - this is often where the real action begins, so make sure you don't disappear too quickly!

Complete your score sheet

After the event you simply tick who you liked on the Original Dating website and the site works about your matches automatically. If the dates you have ticked as a "yes" have reciprocated you have a match. You will be able to view the first names and message them via our site online without revealing your email address until you are ready to. You'll be having proper first dates in no time.
