Professional Matchmaking Services in New York
Find Real Love in the City That Never Sleeps

In New York, there's no time to waste on bad dates. Between demanding careers, social obligations, and actually trying to have a life, who has hours to spend swiping through dating apps only to meet people who aren't even close to what they claimed in their profile?
If you're tired of the endless cycle of disappointing dates and time-wasters, you're in the right place.
Master Matchmakers has been helping singles across New York find lasting relationships since 2007. We're not another dating app promising magical algorithms. We're experienced matchmakers who take the time to actually understand you—what you're looking for, what matters most in a partner, and what kind of relationship you want to build.
Our approach is simple: we handle the hassle and guesswork so you can skip straight to meeting compatible people who are genuinely worth your time. No more wondering if someone's profile is real. No more first dates with people who are clearly looking for something completely different than you are. Just personalized introductions with handpicked matches who align with your values, lifestyle, interests, and relationship goals.
We get to know you first—not through some generic questionnaire, but through actual conversations about who you are and what you need. Then our professional matchmakers work specifically with you to find someone who's actually compatible, not just someone who happens to be available.
Whether you're in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Staten Island, or anywhere in the greater New York area, we're here to help you stop wasting time and start meeting the right people.
Let us help you create something meaningful. After all, in the city that never sleeps, shouldn't your dating life be just as exciting as the rest of your life?
Why New Yorkers Choose Master Matchmakers
We Know New York Dating—And We Know It's Tough
Dating in New York is unlike anywhere else. The sheer number of people should make it easier to find someone, but somehow it makes it harder. Everyone's busy, everyone's picky, and everyone's been burned by dating apps that promise the world but deliver nothing but disappointment.
Here's what makes Master Matchmakers different from the apps and other services you've tried:
We've been doing this since 2007. That's nearly two decades of successfully connecting New York singles. We've seen dating trends come and go, watched apps rise and fall, and through it all, we've stayed focused on what actually works: personalized matchmaking based on genuine compatibility.
We actually vet people. Every single person in our network goes through comprehensive verification:
- Identity verification through government ID checks, knowledge based authentication or financial account ownership
- Age verification so there are no surprises
- Photo authentication to ensure they look like their pictures
- Criminal background checks through public records
- Personal interviews with our matchmaking team
This isn't just a formality. We're talking about real due diligence—the kind you'd want to do yourself if you had unlimited time and resources. We do it because your safety and your time matter.
We don't waste your time. In New York, time is everything. We're not going to send you on dates with people who clearly aren't right for you just to fulfill some quota. Every introduction we make is based on genuine compatibility and real potential.
We understand what you're up against. The demanding work schedules, the social exhaustion, the cynicism that comes from too many bad dates—we get it. Our clients are successful professionals, entrepreneurs, executives, and busy New Yorkers who refuse to settle. We work with people who know what they want and are ready to find it.
Personalized Matchmaking, Not Generic Profiles
Here's the problem with dating apps and even some matchmaking services: they treat you like a data point. Fill out a profile, answer some questions, let an algorithm decide who you should meet. It's impersonal, ineffective, and frankly, insulting to your intelligence.
We don't work that way.
At Master Matchmakers, we take the time to genuinely understand you as a person:
- What are your core values and how do they show up in your daily life?
- What kind of lifestyle do you live, and what kind of partner would fit into it?
- What are your real dealbreakers versus nice-to-haves?
- What have your past relationships taught you about what you need?
- What does your ideal relationship actually look like in practice?
We don't just send out generic profiles or throw together matches that may not be right for you. Our professional matchmakers work individually with each client to find someone who's genuinely compatible—someone who shares your values, complements your lifestyle, enjoys similar interests, and wants the same kind of relationship you're looking for.
This personalized approach means fewer dates, but better dates. You're not meeting dozens of random people hoping one works out. You're meeting carefully selected individuals who our team believes could be a real match.
How Our New York Matchmaking Process Works
Step 1: Start With a Confidential Consultation
Complete our confidential Get Started form or call us at (800) 734-9230 to begin your matchmaking journey. A coordinator will reach out to have an honest conversation about what you're looking for and what hasn't worked for you in the past.
We'll walk you through our services and help you determine the right level of matchmaking support for your situation. Each experience is completely customized to suit your individual needs and budget, and we'll discuss pricing transparently during this initial call.
There's no pressure, no hard sell—just a straightforward discussion about whether we're the right fit for helping you find what you're looking for.
Step 2: Complete Our Verification Process
To qualify for matchmaking, you'll need to prove your identity, verify your age and photos, and pass a criminal background check. We know it sounds thorough—because it is. We ask this of every single person, including you.
Why? Because this mutual verification is what makes our service safe and effective for everyone. You deserve to know that everyone you meet has been properly vetted, and they deserve the same assurance about you.
Think of it this way: would you rather go on dates arranged through a service where anyone can sign up and claim to be whoever they want? Or would you rather meet people who've been thoroughly verified and confirmed to be exactly who they say they are?
The choice is obvious.
Step 3: Receive Your Guaranteed Match Introductions
Once you're verified and in our system, our matchmaking team gets to work finding compatible matches for you. We present your photos and profile to prospective matches who meet your specific criteria, and we actively advocate for you—highlighting what makes you special and creating genuine interest before making any introduction.
When we identify someone we believe could be a great match, we'll share their verified profile and photos with you. If you're both interested, we exchange phone numbers so you can get acquainted before meeting in person.
This pre-date conversation is important. It gives you both a chance to feel comfortable, gauge chemistry, and decide if you want to meet face-to-face. No awkward surprises, no wasted evenings—just thoughtful introductions with people who might actually be right for you.
After each date, we follow up with both of you to get honest feedback. What worked? What didn't? What are you learning about what you really need in a partner? This continuous feedback loop helps us refine our understanding and find better matches as we go.
We guarantee a specific number of match introductions as part of your package—real dates with verified people who meet your criteria and are excited to meet you, not just random suggestions to check a box.
Step 4: Get Professional Coaching Support (Optional)
Many of our most successful New York clients combine matchmaking with professional dating and relationship coaching. Even smart, successful people sometimes have blind spots or patterns that sabotage their relationships.
Our coaches meet with you face-to-face to:
- Identify recurring patterns that might be holding you back from finding the right relationship
- Break habits that aren't serving your dating and relationship goals
- Learn proven communication strategies and relationship best practices
- Create a strategic plan for finding and maintaining lasting love
- Provide ongoing support between sessions as new challenges arise
Most of our clients use coaching alongside matchmaking to maximize their success. Others choose coaching as a standalone service—maybe they prefer to date on their own but want expert guidance navigating the process.
Either way, the insights you gain don't just improve your love life. They enhance all your relationships—friendships, family connections, professional partnerships. It's an investment in yourself that pays dividends everywhere.

What Makes Us Different From Other New York Matchmaking Services?
We're Your Advocates, Not Just Your Database
Some matchmaking services are essentially expensive databases. They match you with whoever happens to be in their system and consider their job done. That's not matchmaking—that's lazy.
At Master Matchmakers, we actively advocate for you throughout the entire process. When we present your profile to potential matches, we're not just forwarding information—we're talking you up, explaining what makes you special, and creating genuine excitement about meeting you.
And if we can't find the right match in our existing network? We don't just shrug and move on. We conduct extensive outreach to find new prospects who fit exactly what you're looking for. We're relentless in our search because we understand that "good enough" isn't good enough when it comes to finding your person.
Quality Over Quantity, Every Single Time
In New York, you could theoretically go on a different date every night of the week. But what's the point if none of them are right for you?
We don't measure success by how many dates you go on. We measure it by how compatible those dates are—whether they're people you could genuinely build a future with.
You won't be overwhelmed with dozens of mismatched profiles. Instead, you'll meet a carefully curated group of people who align with what you're actually looking for. People who share your values. People at a similar life stage. People who want the same kind of relationship you want.
Every introduction we make is intentional, thoughtful, and based on real compatibility—not just proximity or availability.
Privacy and Discretion for Busy Professionals
For many of our New York clients—executives, public figures, media personalities, and successful professionals—privacy is paramount. The last thing you need is your dating life becoming office gossip or social media fodder.
We understand the need for discretion, and we handle every introduction with complete confidentiality. Your search for love stays private, allowing you to explore connections without worrying about your personal life becoming public knowledge.
Frequently Asked Questions About New York Matchmaking
Who uses professional matchmaking services in New York?
Our New York clients include:
- Busy professionals and executives who don't have time for endless swiping
- Entrepreneurs building businesses who need efficient dating solutions
- Recently divorced or widowed individuals ready to find love again
- People who've relocated to New York and want to build meaningful connections
- Anyone who's tired of low-quality matches and time-wasters on dating apps
- Successful singles who are serious about finding a committed relationship
What they all have in common: they value their time, refuse to settle, and are genuinely ready for something real.
How is this different from using dating apps?
Dating apps are designed for volume, not quality. You do all the work—swiping, messaging, vetting, filtering, and hoping people are who they claim to be.
Master Matchmakers flips that model completely:
We do the searching. While you're living your life, we're actively finding compatible matches for you.
We verify everyone. No fake profiles, no catfishing, no wondering if someone's photos are from 2015. Everyone's identity, age, and background are thoroughly checked.
We create genuine interest. We personally represent you to potential matches, creating excitement about meeting you before any introduction happens.
We provide expert guidance. Our coaches help you navigate challenges, improve your dating approach, and build the relationship you want.
We protect your privacy. Your dating life stays discreet—crucial for professionals who can't afford to have their personal life exposed online.
The difference between apps and professional matchmaking is the difference between hoping to get lucky and strategically pursuing what you want.
Do you work with clients throughout the New York area?
Absolutely. We serve singles throughout New York, including:
- Manhattan (all neighborhoods—Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Midtown, Downtown, etc.)
- Brooklyn (Williamsburg, Park Slope, DUMBO, Brooklyn Heights, and beyond)
- Queens (Astoria, Long Island City, Forest Hills, and more)
- The Bronx

We also work with clients throughout the United States as part of our nationwide matchmaking services. If you're interested in meeting people in other major cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, Miami, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Dallas, or Houston, we can help with that too.
How much does matchmaking cost in New York?
Pricing depends on several factors unique to your situation:
- The number of guaranteed match introductions you want
- How specific or flexible your partner criteria are
- How marketable you are to the people you want to meet
- Whether you want to include relationship coaching sessions
We customize every package to fit your needs and budget. During your initial consultation, we provide completely transparent pricing information so you can make an informed decision. No hidden fees, no surprise charges—just honest information about the investment required.
What if I don't find a match?
We guarantee that the information we provide about potential matches is accurate and that everyone has been thoroughly verified. If any information proves inaccurate, we discount that match and provide another introduction at no additional cost.
However, we legally cannot guarantee specific romantic outcomes. Chemistry is unpredictable, and relationships involve two people making independent choices. What we can guarantee is our commitment to the process—we'll work diligently to find compatible matches, provide expert coaching, and support you throughout your journey.
Our goal isn't just fulfilling a contract. It's helping you find a genuine, lasting relationship. That's why we continuously refine our approach based on your feedback and keep searching until we get it right.
