Taunton, you are a gorgeous town, rich in history and surrounded by the scenic landscapes of Somerset. I couldn't imagine a better setting to find that special someone. Which is exactly why Original Dating is making the trip east with all our fantastic events, to the singles of Taunton. In 2018, Original Dating will be launching our famous events and here's what to expect. 

Original Dating have been London's first choice speed dating company since 2003. We know exactly what it takes to run fun and well attended speed dating events and we even go that bit further. We had the first marriage from speed dating in the UK back in 2004 and many more since. Our enthusiastic hosts are all on hand to make sure your experience is as smooth and fun as possible.  

At an Original Dating event you can expect 15 – 20 dates, each lasting 4 minutes. This gives you more than enough time to see if they're someone you'd like to meet again and not too long to just have a chat. Once everyone has met one another you will have plenty opportunity to flirt some more after the event. Our social nights are the best around and hugely successful. 

After the event you'll have access to our bespoke matching system, where you can enter your selections and find out who you've matched with. Then simply use our post event messaging to start arranging those dates!

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating Taunton, Somerset 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 Taunton 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 a girl.

Meet & Mingle

A Taunton 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.
