During one of our mealtime conversation several months ago with my neighbor, we talked about matchmaking services. We concluded that the service is probably popular with the rich professionals who have no time for on-line dating on their own time. My dinner mate mentioned that a relative in her mid-30's just informed her she was able to get a marriage partner via a matchmaking service that cost her 10K. I have no idea of what is currently a reasonable cost for matchmaking services. I got curious so I did a search and here's what I learned💚.
"As of 2024, matchmaking fees across the industry range from about $3,000 to $50,000.
Fees vary widely, reflecting the personalized nature of the service, and these costs can be affected by a number of factors, including:
- the exclusivity of the service
- the duration of the contract
- the level of customization offered
Some matchmaking companies, including us, also offer different tiers of service, with higher tiers providing more personalized attention and access to a more exclusive client base.
Note: It’s important to remember that these fees are an investment in a service that’s tailored to finding a compatible, long-term partner, and they often include extensive consultations, personalized matchmaking, coaching, date coordination, concierge service and follow-up support.
Comparing Matchmaking Costs with Online Dating
When weighing matchmaking services against online dating, we understand that cost is a significant factor. Matchmaking, with its personalized approach, typically involves higher upfront costs compared to online dating apps or websites, which often have free or lower subscription rates. The difference is that matchmaking provides a bespoke service, potentially leading to more meaningful connections, and much faster than the more time-consuming search of online dating.
Are Matchmaking Services Worth It?
Personalized matchmaking is unlike any app you’ve ever used. Matchmakers can be worth the investment for those who value personalized assistance in their search for a partner. They offer expertise in human relationships, saving time and energy by curating potential matches. For busy professionals or those tired of the hit-or-miss nature of dating apps, matchmakers provide a more focused approach to finding a compatible partner.
Despite the initial cost, matchmaking services can potentially save money in the long run. This saving comes from the efficiency and targeted nature of the service. Matchmakers streamline the dating process, reducing the time and expenses associated with endless dates that may not lead to meaningful connections. By focusing on quality over quantity, matchmakers aim to quickly and effectively connect you with compatible partners, potentially leading to a lasting relationship sooner and reducing the overall financial and emotional costs of prolonged searching.
However, it’s important to have realistic expectations and understand that matchmaking is an investment, both financially and emotionally, in your personal journey to find love.
Key Take-Away: By focusing on quality over quantity, matchmakers aim to quickly and effectively connect you with compatible partners, potentially leading to a lasting relationship sooner and reducing the overall financial and emotional costs of prolonged searching. It’s a real investment, but one which might pay endless dividends.

Meanwhile, here's my previous Dinner several months ago (To-Go) featuring Lentil soup with sausage and Pork Tenderloin served with baked sweet yam and saute'ed ginger carrots and mango chutney.
The lentil soup reminds me of one of my favorite Filipino dish, Guinisang Mongo with Pork. The Pork Tenderloin was delicious and the mango chutney was a perfect sauce and side dish. Again Kudos to Agustin, Our Newton's Chef.. Also, welcome, Joel -our newly hired sous Chef. May your stay here at THD a long and happy event in your life!
Lastly, here's my poem of the Day:
