Singles Events from Fast Life.com
Review of Fast Life.com's Speed Dating Singles Events

About.com Rating 4.5

By Bonny Albo, About.com

Fast Life hosts speed dating events that look more like singles events in major metropolitan areas around the world. Their slick, user-friendly website is a joy to breeze around if you have fast internet access; the only apparent downfall is the higher-than-average cost to attend an event.

Overview of Fast Life Speed Dating From Their Website

"At FastLife Speed Dating creating a party is an exact science. We put the right people together to get the sparks flying.

Our unique software system takes into account factors such as your age, your psychological profile and the exact age of people you would like to meet before inviting you to a speed dating event."

How Do Fast Life Singles Events Work?

Fast Life works a bit differently than most speed dating companies in that they do not post event calendars. Instead, their singles events occur by invitation only after you've signed up with them for free. Payment only occurs after a singles event that matches your criteria, demographic and personality profile is sent to you.

Events take place in trendy, upscale venues with an evently-matched number of males and females for heterosexual pairings. Each date lasts eight minutes long.

Unique Features of Fast Life Speed Dating

Fast Life offers special speed dating events for singles not seen elsewhere. Some of the target groups include taller singles (men over 6 ft. tall and the women who love them), Broadway lovers in New York, fitness buffs, dog lovers, wine afficionados, salsa and a speed date, women under 5 ft. 5, childless singles or single parents, artsy types, and specific racial types (such as Asian women or European men).

Fast Life also hosts Masquerade balls for people looking to get all dressed up and mingle with 100 other singles, and "Locked and Loaded" (lock and key) parties for the under 35 set.

Fees to Attend Fast Life Singles Events

There is no cost to sign up for Fast Life, but attending an invite-only speed dating event with them is $69.95 USD. Fees include meeting ten other eligible singles that you are matched with by age and interest and complimentary drinks with hors d'oeuvres the entire evening. Members who have attended at least one event previously are only charged $59.95 USD, and some members who are in 'high demand' demographically are sometimes offered a 50% discount to attend a singles event.

Fast Life accepts Visa and Mastercard only.
