Our team of matchmaking experts created this comprehensive guide to help singles in Palm Beach decide which matchmaker is best for them.

These are the 6 best matchmakers for Palm Beach singles.
From what to expect during the process to how much you can expect to spend, this guide will help you decide which of these Palm Beach County matchmakers are worth investigating further!
Enamour
Catering to accomplished Palm Beach singles seeking a "white glove" matchmaking experience, Enamour is renown for its exclusive, invite-only database of exceptional singles.
Clientele
Enamour offers targeted searches to both men and women. Potential clients start with a screening process, as the Enamour team is as selective about who they work with as they are about who's in the database.
Cost & Contract
Packages begin around $20,000 for a 6-month search, with a range of options available.
What To Expect From Enamour
The matchmaking process begins once you're paired with a dedicated personal matchmaker. During an in-depth interview, she'll learn more about your lifestyle, goals, interests, etc., as well as your preferred matchmaking criteria and dealbreakers.
Armed with this information, she'll select highly compatible potential matches from the Enamour database. But the search extends far beyond that, as the team also uses recruiting tech and a network of scouts to identify candidates from a variety of other sources as well.
Each candidate is vetted, a process which includes an in-person or video screening interview. After a successful compatibility screening, you'll have the opportunity to accept or decline the match based on a full photo array and profile.
First dates are arranged for you, and after each introduction your matchmaker will check in with both of you to gather feedback and fine-tune the search as necessary.
To complement the matchmaking process, Enamour offers a variety of additional services such as personal styling, dating and relationship coaching, image consulting, and professional photography.
VIDA Select (by Scott Valdez)
Scott Valdez’s elite modern matchmaking company VIDA Select has been helping Palm Beach singles meet highly compatible matches for over a decade.
Clientele
Both men and women are eligible to become paying clients, provided they pass the screening process. VIDA Select clients are typically highly successful, career-minded singles in their late 20s to early 60s.
Cost & Contract
Clients can choose from an array of packages offered at 3 different levels of matchmaking service. Basic matchmaking packages start at $1195 a month. Premium packages start at just $1795 a month, and Elite packages begin at only $2595 a month.
Package cost is highly correlated with how many hours should be dedicated to your search, with factors like your 'ideal match' criteria and search radius taken into consideration. Because packages are paid by the month, there is no long-term contract required.
What To Expect
VIDA Select has one major difference from the other Palm Beach matchmakers on this list - no long-term contract is required.
Valdez’s modern approach to matchmaking works - so there’s no need for one. Clients pay on a month-to-month basis, so there’s no risk of committing yourself to 6, 12 or even more months of matchmaking services you may not need.
With a wide range of matchmaking packages to choose from, you’re sure to find one that fits your needs. VIDA clients typically meet someone special within 3 months of service.
If the service isn’t a good fit for what you're looking for, simply don’t continue with another month. If you want to date one of your high-quality matches exclusively, you can stop your service at any time. Just restart at your convenience!
VIDA Select’s matchmakers have access to Palm Beach’s single largest source of eligible singles, and your matches will be carefully selected according to your ideal partner criteria. You can approve every single match based on a full profile - pictures included.
Clients receive unlimited matches, and VIDA Select also offers dating coaching, style & image consulting and more. So you can be your best self for every first date!
Love Boss Matchmaking (by Julie Bekker)
After working with elite matchmaker Janis Spindel for almost a decade, Julia Bekker started her own matchmaking service, Hunting Maven, in NYC in 2012.
Part of the Hunting Maven brand, Bekker launched Love Boss Matchmaking in South Florida, with affiliated matchmakers in West Palm Beach and Miami.
Clientele
Bekker’s elite matchmaking service typically works with affluent, successful men. Women can submit a profile for screening. If selected, they will be considered as a potential match for paying male clients. There is no fee for women to be placed in the database.
Cost & Contract
$15,000 - $30,000 for 6 or 12 months of matchmaking service. (There is also a “single introduction” option.)
What To Expect From Love Boss Matchmaking
Women can apply to be “Candidates” via the Love Boss Matchmaking website. If you’re accepted, your profile will be shown to paying male clients if you seem like a compatible match.
Potential male clients can also fill out the online questionnaire, and a Love Boss matchmaker will schedule a consultation to discuss the process and get an idea of what sort of woman you’d like to meet.
If you come on board as a paying client, you’ll sign a contract and then be matched with “Candidates” from the database, or who have been located via Bekker’s network of matchmaking contacts.
The dates are all arranged for you, and you’ll get the chance to discuss how things went with your matchmaker afterward. Love Boss Matchmaking also offers additional dating coaching and image consulting services.

LUMA Luxury Matchmaking (by April Davis)
LUMA Luxury Matchmaking isn’t strictly a Palm Beach dating agency - they’re actually a national matchmaking service headquartered in Minneapolis, MN with offices around the country. South Florida locations include Boca Raton and Miami.
LUMA was founded in 2010 and was originally called "Cupid's Cronies."
Clientele
April Davis and her matchmaking team take on both men and women as paying clients, generally professional singles in their late 20s and up.
Cost & Contract
$5,000 - $50,000+ depending on the contract length & search parameters. Having your profile added to LUMA’s database for potential matching is free, however you may never be paired with a paying client.
What To Expect From LUMA Matchmaking
Potential clients can fill out LUMA’s online questionnaire. You’ll be invited to have an initial consultation by phone to talk about the personal matchmaking service.
If you decide to sign the contract, the matchmaking process works just a bit differently than Love Boss Matchmaking. Your matchmaker will find matches in the database who want to date in the Palm Beach area, then screen for the singles who are most compatible with what you’re seeking.
Those matches will be further screened by your matchmaker. You’ll then be able to either express interest in or pass on at least 3 of them. If the two of you find you have chemistry, you can exchange numbers during the date.
LUMA also offers dating coaching for an additional fee.

Once you’ve met a particular match, you can follow up with your matchmaker to let her know how you think it went, and your perceptions as to the level of compatibility.
If needed, Trombetti may suggest the dating coaching program her matchmaking company offers. She can also create a “dating action plan” with customized advice.
