ABOUT
The Matchmakers Alliance is a not-for-profit trade association created by matchmakers as a platform where dating professionals can come together to collaborate and share ideas in order to best serve our clients. It is the Alliance's hope that lasting collaborative business relationships, as well as life-long friendships, will develop within the Alliance. These relationships not only benefit dating professionals but, ultimately, benefit our clients and the dating industry as a whole. Each year, we hold a conference for our members. We spend time in beautiful locations vacationing, learning and sharing with one another as well as learning from our carefully selected expert speakers who bring great value to our businesses.​ We invite YOU to join us at our annual conference, a retreat aboard Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady departing from Miami, November 7-12, 2025.
