partner with luvvly 💜
Luvvly hosts in-person speed dating-inspired events that help singles connect over casual drinks and cozy conversation.
Our events blend right into your usual service flow, require zero setup or staff involvement, and consistently bring 12–16 new patrons to your space during quieter hours.

all the nitty gritty stuff…
-
Very little! We just ask for a few simple things to ensure the event runs smoothly:
Confirm date nights in advance so we can begin marketing them.
Avoid scheduling us during other events like trivia, bingo, or live music.
Keep music at a lower volume so participants can hear each other easily during conversations.
-
No, we intentionally avoid drink minimums to ensure non-drinking participants are never excluded or turned away.
That said, drink orders are heavily encouraged, and they’ve never been an issue.
Guests typically arrive 5–10 minutes early and most order a drink before the event begins. We also include a short intermission halfway through (many get refills then) and some groups stick around afterward to keep the conversation (and tabs) flowing.
-
Not at all. Luvvly daters look and act like your regular crowd. There’s no signage, no disruption, and no need to section off space.
-
No special setup needed. We only ask that there’s available seating for ~8 couples (16 people) in a quiet, open area where daters can spot each other quickly. Open seating is totally fine unless you have a preferred space you’d like us to use.
-
Luvvly has a custom web-app to help guide folks through the experience. Daters arrive, grab a drink, and are prompted when and where to rotate all from their phones.
Each date lasts ~10 minutes, participants use each others descriptors on a “flirty scavenger hunt” to find one another in your space.
While we don’t have a host on site, our team is in close contact with daters via text throughout the day leading up to the event, and is available for remote support throughout the entire evening as well. -
Nope! Luvvly events are completely self-managed. Our team communicates directly with all daters during the event and handles everything remotely. We just ask to have an emergency contact number on file in case anything urgent arises.
-
We host events on Tuesdays/ Wednesdays/ Thursdays ( 2 hour time slot between 6:30–9:30pm) or Sunday afternoons ( 2 hour time slot between 3:30–7:30pm).
You’ll be asked to approve each date before we schedule until we get on a rolling schedule. -
Promotion isn’t required, but it really helps sell out!
We handle the bulk of marketing and always aim to fill events ourselves, but a quick shout-out on your social media or adding the events to your monthly calendar can significantly boost turnout and trust with your regulars.
-
Our events depend on a balanced ratio of participants for a great experience. In the rare case of too many last-minute cancellations, we’d rather pull the plug than deliver a subpar event. On the rare occasion that this happens we immediately notify all participants, issue full refunds, and let you know right away so your team’s never caught off guard.
If your space gets a buy-out just let us know asap and we’ll re-route that scheduled event to a different partnered venue nearby :)
-
We’re still partnered with 90% of the venues we launched with.
Our events are low-maintenance, bring in great people, and consistently lead to repeat traffic.
We’ve built long-term relationships with local businesses by being respectful, consistent, and easy to work with.
scheduling:
Date nights are hosted during slower weekday nights and Sunday afternoons.
Each event runs ~2 hours and brings steady bar sales: most participants order a drink before start time, during intermission, and some stay to mingle after.
Our daters fill the lulls, boost bar sales, and create a vibrant atmosphere in your space during typically slow shifts.
