In today's modern world, there are numerous avenues to meet someone, ranging from socializing at the pub to swiping on dating apps, from encounters in higher education to connections made in the workplace, and, of course, through speed dating.

The allure of speed dating lies in the fact that everyone attending is there for the same purpose, creating a welcoming and sociable atmosphere. It's an environment where individuals can interact face-to-face without the pressures often associated with online dating, fostering genuine connections. This conducive setting has led to meaningful and enduring relationships, as evidenced by the story of Toby and Amy.

We were delighted to receive an email from Toby on Monday, expressing his gratitude for bringing them together. Toby and Amy's journey began at our St Paul's speed dating event in 2012, and they are now celebrating their third wedding anniversary, along with the joy of parenting their beautiful 16-month-old child.

The team at Original Dating extends our warmest wishes to Toby and Amy for a bright and fulfilling future together.

One of the most gratifying aspects of my role is hearing success stories like theirs. It's rare to find a profession where job satisfaction is so profound; even writing about it brings a smile to my face.

We are incredibly thankful to Toby and Amy for sharing their love story with us, reaffirming that we're making a positive impact. If you have any other success stories to share, please do; we'd love to hear them. There are bound to be many more tales of love and connection, just like Toby and Amy's.
