Open Brainstorms

What are ways to promote/make people comfortable at a speed dating venue?

According to the Pew Research Center married people are happier than unmarrieds. I feel a good way to get people out and meeting new people is a speed dating service. Traditionally they can be conceived more as a joke than anything else.

Use the first hour of the evening to relax people by getting them to do something totally unrelated to speed dating - games and sports, for example.

This idea will perhaps promote the event and also make people comfortable at a speed date: find a way to create a "look quotient" and then make a speed date event where people with a similar look-quotient are invited. Contact me if you want further details on ways a LQ could be calculated.

A speed dating meet where everyone is blindfolded. This would help to eliminate preconceptions and help people to find compatibility based on personality. If these meets are succesful, then publish the statistics to show how much of an improvement the new form of dating is over the 'normal'.

Add condition that participants can only participate/enter venue if drunk. (Fun, and would probably get lots of free publicity)

Give everyone 3 questions they must ask the other person during the speed dating, so they have something to talk about immediately.
