What geographic area do you serve?

We primarily serve the Greater Pittsburgh and surrounding area. We are also networked nationally and help match some clients that have a second home in another state or travel to certain areas for business on a regular basis.

What is the process?

Clients schedule a meeting with one of our expert matchmakers to review their confidential profile and discuss their “perfect match” requirements. We then complete a customized profile for each client and recommend compatible matches. When both parties agree to meet, we make the introduction. We strongly encourage client feedback after each first date until clients declare an exclusive relationship.  

How long is your contract period?

Our yearly contracts have a match guarantee as it is important to us that our client’s investments are protected.

What are your different levels of service?

We have four membership levels at different prices that are customized to each clients needs that can be discussed when we meet or via phone prior to meeting.

Is your matchmaking process confidential?

Absolutely. That's one of the main reasons our clients choose The Modern Matchmaker. They are selective and value their confidentiality. We do background checks and we know our clients far better than their profiles.

Do clients from other dating services come to you?

This happens frequently, as our business model is quite different from other services. The Modern Matchmaker is a boutique matchmaking service for professional singles. Our clients are selective and value their confidentiality.

When and why did Susan, Founder and Professional Matchmaker first get into matchmaking?

As a younger woman, Susan had a difficult time meeting single, professional, compatible men that were her equal. Our clients are busy professionals who either do not have time to meet the right people or attract the wrong people like a magnet.

Getting started is easy.
