Mix & Match: A Cocktail Party for Singles at The Velvet Elk – Seattle, WA

Join us for a dating-themed cocktail party, where everyone arrives single and everyone gets a match… no swiping necessary! Hosted by the Love Doctor and Noir Events, your home for Seattle’s most charming, intimate, and thoughtful events.

Matching will be powered by Matchbox. It’s a software that uses relationship science to find you your most compatible match at the party. It’s also the same technology behind the Marriage Pact, tradition at 100+ universities that’s matched more than half a million people to date.

Now Introducing… PLATONIC MATCHES
Look, I hear you. For one reason or another, a romantic match doesn’t sound right for you at the moment. Join the platonic matches and find a friend with the same Matchbox science. But you must be single: it’s going to get flirty!

Sincerely,
The Love Doctor

ALL GUESTS MUST RSVP BY SUNDAY @ 11AM.

TICKET INCLUDES:
– Admission to attendance at the Velvet Elk
– Choice of romantic or platonic matchmaking

HOW IT WORKS:
Upon arrival, you’ll take a matching questionnaire built by Matchbox’s team of relationship scientists.

The Matchbox algorithm will identify your optimal match at the party, based on relationship science, AI, and Nobel Prize-winning economics.

After an evening of mixing, mingling, and a few charming dating games with other singles, your matches are revealed. Who will you meet?

WHO IT’S FOR:
The matching process is highly intentional—come with an open mind!

If your match isn’t love at first sight, that’s okay! The algorithm is designed for long-term compatibility, so at baseline, you’ll be values-aligned.

At the end of the day, this will be a great group of single people. Enjoy meeting everyone, keep an open mind, and remember to be kind.
