Dating in Sydney
can feel like this

Many of our Sydney members
told us the same things

  1. 01

    Growing anxiety

    Another year goes by
    and friends are settling down

  2. 02

    Pressure from parents

    Every video call ends with
    'so, anyone special yet?'

  3. 03

    Not sure how to start

    Hard to make the first move
    and dates go quiet

  4. 04

    Too reserved

    Sincere but slow to warm up,
    so people miss the real you

How we help in Sydney

How IDO works
in Sydney

A matchmaker with you at every step

  1. 01

    A proper interview

    At our Barangaroo office or on Zoom.
    Book at least 24 hours ahead.
    Evenings and weekends available.

  2. 02

    Think about four things

    The life you want to live
    The values you want in a partner
    What past relationships taught you
    Your absolute deal-breakers

  3. 03

    One-on-one matching

    Avoid the mistakes you've made before.
    You only meet when you both say yes.

  4. 04

    Monthly Sydney events

    Dinners and speed dating
    Masquerade and White Parties
    Halloween costume parties

Newcomers are welcome at our events. We hold a short interview and basic verification first, so everyone in the room is serious about finding a partner.

You don't have to live in the same city. Your matchmaker sets up video dates and supports you both until you decide to meet. Our longest-distance couple: Silicon Valley and Sydney.

A Sydney story

Their first date nearly fell flat.
Three months later, they were together.

He was born in 1993, a quantity surveyor, quiet and home straight after work. She was born in 1997, a nurse her friends call 'little sunshine'. Their matchmaker saw opposite personalities but the same hopes for family and the future. On the first date he struggled to match her energy, so the matchmaker helped them talk it through between dates. Three months later they made it official.
