Best Dallas Matchmakers: 6 Services To Check Out First!

Being single in Dallas gets frustrating fast when you’re not meeting the type of person you’d consider dating long-term. Hiring a Dallas matchmaker lets you jump straight to the “dates with highly compatible people” part.

But which one should you hire?

Our team of matchmaking experts created this comprehensive guide to help Dallas singles answer that very question! Our experience in the industry dates back to 2009, so we're extremely familiar with all the major players and the smaller independent operators.

We’ve written well over 200 matchmaker reviews, leveraging our in-depth industry knowledge and our first-hand understanding of what clients value most in a matchmaking service.

Check out this list of the top 6 DFW matchmakers, including costs, so you can decide which matchmaking service works best for you!

Enamour

A matchmaking service designed for accomplished singles looking to meet highly screened, relationship-worthy matches, Enamour should make your short list if you're looking for a tailored experience.

Clientele

Enamour works with both men and women as clients, typically successful, selective professionals.

Cost

Matchmaking packages start around $20,000 for a 6-month search.

What To Expect

Enamour's approach to matchmaking is an effective blend of relationship psychology, AI, and intuition. As a client, you'll be paired with a dedicated personal matchmaker who will gain a deep understanding of your lifestyle, personality, and matching preferences.

First, she'll search Enamour's exclusive, invitation-only database. Each candidate is thoroughly vetted either in person or via video call. Your matchmaker will compile a list of insightful questions to ask all potential matches based on the information gathered during the "getting to know you" process.

Candidates who pass the screening are presented for approval. After each introduction, you'll have the opportunity to provide feedback, and also receive valuable insights into how the date went from your match's perspective.

Enamour offers a host of complementary services designed to support clients throughout the dating process. These include relationship and dating coaching, personal styling, image consulting, and professional photography.

Enamour Matchmaking Reviews 

Enamour has a 4.0 rating on Trustpilot. Many of the favorable reviews shared how their matchmaker made their transition back into dating easier or meeting someone special through the service.  

As this reviewer said, “I was fortunate to work with Stacy, who is a wonderful matchmaker and is very thoughtful about her approach. My date was a perfect match for me, and I give her a lot of credit for being so intuitive and diligent.”  

VIDA Select (by Scott Valdez)

Want to hire the matchmaking service with access to the largest pool of eligible Dallas singles? Look no further. VIDA's team has been helping singles find their ideal partners since 2009.

Clientele

VIDA Select takes on both men and women as paying clients, typically in their upper 20s to mid-60s.

Cost

Clients choose from 3 levels of matchmaking service: Basic, Premium and Elite. Package prices are highly reflective of how many hours need to be devoted to the search for perfect matches, so considerations like your match criteria, locations, etc. are all taken into account when selecting the best level of service for you.

Basic packages begin at $1195 a month, Premium options start at $1795 a month and Elite packages begin at $2595 a month.

What To Expect

If you're looking for elite matchmaking services without having to commit to a long-term contract, VIDA’s pay as you go model could be perfect for you.

Your dedicated matchmaker will hand-select Dallas singles matching your criteria, and you decide which ones you’d consider dating. We'll take care of scheduling the date.

And because our matchmakers can leverage Dallas’s largest pool of singles, the average VIDA client stops service within the first few months so they can explore a relationship with a promising match!

VIDA Select Reviews

On Trustpilot, VIDA Select has a 4.5 star rating based on over 400 reviews. 

One reviewer spoke about how their matchmaker was always positive and uplifting: 

“Nordika is absolutely amazing!!! She is uplifting and always in a good mood. 😄she instantly makes you feel comfortable with the idea of meeting your perfect match… She made this experience pleasant, enjoyable, and fun!” 

And this person was happy with their entire experience, including the fact they may have met someone special:  

“What a great experience. Got so many dates that I wouldn’t have got without Vida… Simmy - thank you for everything. Major superstar- no word of exaggeration. And … I think I have found someone special. 🤩” 

Sameera Sullivan Matchmakers

Looking for an elite matchmaker with Texas roots? Sameera Sullivan is a Texas native! She founded her matchmaking service, originally called Lasting Connections, in Portland in 2012. But she never forgot where she came from. She has offices in Dallas and Houston as well.

Clientele

According to an interview with Houstonia, Sullivan's paying male clients are elite, busy, and high net worth. 90% of her clients are men in their 40s to 50s.

Cost

For women, it's free to have a profile added to Sullivan's database and available for matching with paying male clients. But there’s no guarantee as to when (or if) women will get paired with someone.

For a one-time, $500 fee women can join that database as a "priority" member. That involves a 1-hour interview as well as a background screen. Priority members are given first consideration by the matchmaking team, but being matched with a paying client is not guaranteed.

For men, the cost of her Dallas matchmaking service starts around $25,000 and can go as high as $250,000+. Pricing depends on a number of factors, such as whether or not you want to date locally or in multiple cities and the specificity of our search criteria.

Memberships include 12 months of search time and 6 months of “hold” time.

What To Expect

A "boutique" style Texas matchmaker, Sullivan limits herself to working with a certain number of clients at any given point.

You'll be matched with singles from her Dallas database. Many of her clients have multiple homes or travel extensively, so depending on your package you also have the option of meeting singles from her national database as well.

Sullivan and her team also actively recruit women at sports games, local events, and even gyms and coffee shops if they spot someone who seems to fit what you’re looking for in an ideal partner. Potential matches can also be sourced via her website. Short (non-identifiable) client profiles are posted there, and interested women can apply to meet them.

Sameera Sullivan Reviews

Sameera Sullivan Reviews 

Online reviews of Sameera Sullivan Matchmakers are fairly limited, and you won’t likely find any on Trustpilot, Yelp, or the BBB.  

TrustAnalytica has a 4.8 star rating with all but 1 of the 17 reviews coming from their Google business page.  Those who gave the business 5 stars shared that Sullivan and her team supported them through the entire matchmaking process and were consummate professionals. 

One reviewer said, “not only professional and have the highest integrity, but they are also wise and know exactly what the challenges we face in finding love.”  While another person mentioned, “They interviewed me in my home. Took the time to listen to what I was looking for and what my concerns were.”

Three Day Rule (by Talia Goldstein)

Launched in 2010 by Los Angeles matchmaker Talia Goldstein, Three Day Rule helps singles dating in 12 major cities around the United States, including Dallas.

Clientele

This matchmaking service caters to executives and other single professionals, and takes both men and women on as paying clients.

Cost

Inclusion in the database of eligible Dallas singles - i.e. a “passive membership” - is free. But because the database of singles is so extensive, there are no guarantees of ever being matched with anyone. For a proactive search to be done on your behalf, you'll need to purchase a matchmaking package.

Prices start at $5,900 for a 3-month search, which includes a minimum of 3 guaranteed matches over that time frame. There's also a 6-month option, which includes a minimum of 6 guaranteed matches for $9,500.

Three Day Rule also offers a VIP package, which starts at $19,500 for 6 months. All packages include 2 sessions with a dating coach, as well as a pro photoshoot.

What To Expect

As a paying client, your matchmaker will present a profile, which includes a photo, of each compatible match as they're identified. Because each one is carefully selected, each profile you review counts toward your guaranteed total, even if you decline to meet them.

When there is mutual interest, contact information is exchanged so that the two of you can make plans for either a video date or an in-person one. Throughout the search, your matchmaker will gather feedback that will be used to tweak your search parameters as needed.

Three Day Rule Reviews

Three Day Rule carries a 4.2 rating on Yelp with almost 300 reviews. 

One person shared that their matchmaker’s communication and advice helped them become more confident by saying, “I also received invaluable advice in every interaction I had with her and I am a stronger and more confident woman just having those little pearls of wisdom.” 

And this reviewer met their fiancé through Three Day Rule - “I met my amazing now fiancé through my amazing matchmaker, Lauren, earlier this year.”

Kelleher International

Like Sullivan's service, Kelleher International isn’t based in Dallas. It’s a national matchmaking service based in the San Francisco Bay Area with a team devoted to Dallas singles. Founded in 1986, Kelleher International is helmed by mother & daughter team Jill Kelleher and Amber Kelleher-Andrews.

Clientele

As CEO Amber Kelleher told Forbes, Kelleher International isn’t a “mass market” matchmaking service. Of the 1,000 inquiries they get in a month, they take on maybe 20 as clients. As their website puts it, they attract prominent single professionals who are successful and smart with a taste for the refined.

Cost

Matchmaking packages start at $30,000 and go up to $300,000+. The more cities you’d like included in your search, the more a membership will cost.

Memberships generally run for 1 to 3 years, and include 12 months of “hold” time.

What To Expect

As a paying client, you’ll be matched with people in the Kelleher International Rolodex, which is roughly 50,000 singles. You could also be meeting Dallas singles recruited by the local matchmaking team.

When your Kelleher matchmaker finds someone she feels may interest you, both halves of the match get a description via phone of the other person. Dates are arranged only if there’s mutual interest, and you’re required to give feedback on the experience after each one.

Kellerher International Reviews

You’ll find less than a handful of reviews for Kelleher International between Yelp and the Better Business Bureau combined. These individuals didn’t speak highly of the service, with most of the reviews sharing complaints about the cost of matchmaking services.

Exclusive Matchmaking (by Susan Trombetti)

Susan Trombetti is considered a millionaire matchmaker on the east coast, and her matchmaking service has locations all over the country - including Dallas. It was launched back in 2011.

Clientele

Trombetti typically takes on men in their 30s and up for her “VIP” matchmaking services.

Cost

Matchmaking services require a consultation: $350 via Skype or $550 in person.

Men under 33 can opt for the “Exclusives Introductions” package for $3,500. Otherwise, a standard membership starts at $7,500 and runs north of $125,000 depending on your matchmaking goals and the level of personalized service you’d like.

Don’t want to commit to a long-term contract? For $4,000+ you can have a “Bachelor Party” thrown in your honor where you’ll meet a selection of high-quality Dallas singles.

What To Expect

Trombetti is not the type of matchmaker who works from a list of criteria. In an interview with Capital Gazette, she said she’s told clients to throw them away because she “doesn’t work with lists.”

She’ll also advise you not to “have a type,” because it’s limiting. Instead, she'll focus on your life and relationship goals, what has (and hasn't) worked in your previous long-term relationships, etc.

So with that in mind, you’ll be matched with Dallas singles from her Rolodex that she feels are compatible. After each date, you’ll be asked to give your matchmaker any feedback you feel would be helpful for the next match.

In addition to matchmaking services, you'll also receive coaching, advice and dating tips as needed.

Exclusive Matchmaking Reviews

When it comes to Exclusive Matchmaking reviews, you won’t find hardly any. Which isn’t all that surprising since boutique matchmaking clients generally value discretion.  

The service does have a 5-star rating on its Google business profile, but it’s based on a single review left a decade ago.
