I'm always skeptical of any reviewers that are anonymous or partly anonymous without even the reviewers full name, or a fake name. It's my view that if the person truly has a legit issue with a company, they should have the guts to use their real name and not hide it, otherwise, what are THEY trying to hide? Are they truly a client or former client? Or are they someone that got rejected because they were too crazy, or a fake post planted by a competitor? Unfortunately, some sites like this one don't care about vetting fact from fiction. My name is Bruce Edwin, and I'm NOT afraid to say my full name and who I am. Are you? I regularly rant and rave against Whole Foods, because I like the store so much, I want everything to be perfect and I think they could improve many things that irritate me, as I go there all the time. After I post nasty things, I quickly delete them. LOL. With that said, there are always two sides to every story. And no--the client is NOT always right. I've gone shopping at places before and became livid at the treatment I received or certain things. Some time later, I realized--it wasn't them, it was ME, being in a bad mood and taking it out on others. I'm far from always enlightened, but an enlightened, mature person does always try to look at their own actions FIRST. How we treat others is generally how we are treated back. If someone does not pay for a service, and gets something free as a favor, they are not entitled to be a diva about the service they receive and complain about it and libel people about it. That's just plain nasty and evil. And if someone does NOT pay for a service and does not engage in business with an establishment, then they certainly do not have much of a right to complain about the services they "didn't receive." All of these few posts I have read dissing this company, they either were NOT with the company, got a free sample trial and never paid, or just sound like a person who does not have the guts to use their real name, because they have something to hide. Would YOU date someone or fall in love with someone that posts nasty things about people online using fake or half names, without them trying to contact the person first? I'd run, because that is some straight up psychotic evil behavior. I've known Sherri and Tammi for years, and met a number of their matchmakers and women they represent, and they are all very high class, professional, and kind. Sherri works extremely hard for her clients and truly cares about her job and about the people she represents. I also know that if someone is not happy about something, she tries to go out of her way and make them happy. She's a good person, and her daughter Tammi is a sweetheart. The women I met through Elite Connections are nothing short of outstanding, with one being simply stunning, that would make any man thrilled to be with her. They truly have top-notch women--and men.

ELITE CONNECTIONS is a TOTAL rip-off and Founder Sherri Murphy is a fraud. Many people have been ripped off but they cover it up with FAKE GOOGLE REVIEWS, along with FAKE PR and placed advertising. They state on their website: Award-winning agency! Another lie! Sherri pursued me to join with them and was relentless. She made all the right promises and failed on every one of them! Every interaction has been recorded, I have full evidence and am seeking justice for myself and others who are defrauded. I encourage everyone to speak up. I was persuaded to sign up because of all the advertising about their international high-end profile and was told that the company constantly expanded the membership as they meet new people that match member's preferences. She also told me that every potential match met with her and that the matching would be done by her team based on detailed interview notes. I agreed to sign up and pay for the $25,000 for personalized matching which supposedly included their services networking on your behalf. As soon as I signed onto the service, the person who interviewed me disappeared and other staff immediately and actively ignored specific criteria and began presenting profiles at random, with no indication of whether they had been interviewed by them or how the Profiles met my criteria. Because of the many staff that I had to deal with and the very poor internal coordination, they contradicted themselves all the time and my preferences were actively ignored without an explanation or acknowledgment of mistakes made. When I asked directly why they were not addressing my preferences, the explanation that I often received was that they were doing "their best" with the "best intentions" and "provide excellent service" and they would continue introducing me to people that "they felt" would be suitable for me. I will have my secretary post this on every review site to get the truth out. Most people will never leave a Google review for privacy reasons. I also read a report from Sherri Murphys former employee, AG, and she stated that the GOOGLE REVIEWS ARE ALL FAKE. Notice that 98% of her Google reviews all transpired in the past 2 years. In business 25 years and no reviews from the past?? Very suspicious. STAY AWAY from this FRAUDULENT COMPANY. read more

I wanted to take a few minutes and say what a great job Tammi Pickle did for me in finding me my future bride. With my busy schedule meeting and dating the "right girls" was difficult at best with the limited amount of free time I had. So I needed some help.... after interviewing several matchmaking services I chose Elite/Tammi because of the time she took to meet with me and learn about what I was looking for instead of just having me fill out an online application without a face 2 face meeting and getting to know me and my personality. The first 2 girls Tammi matched with were great but as good as Tammi is at her job she cant make chemistry happen so the 1st 2 didn't work out in a romantic sense, but both gr8 girls ....just not the "magic" we all look for. However, I was feeling optimistic since I am a bit on the picky side and yet Tammi was able to find 2 matches that had many of the things I was looking for. All along this process she was always available for a call or would promptly respond to any emails which was quite comforting since I was on travel a lot for business and would sometimes only have small windows of time to talk. As they say the 3rd time is the charm and sure enough the 3rd match led into the "magic chemistry" and the most amazing girl/relationship I could hope for. As good as I felt after my initial meeting w Tammi I must admit I had my doubts she could find such a great match/girl for me....but she did so she has my highest praise and would highly recommend her for anyone looking to find their perfect mate!!!! Thanks again Tammi!!!!!! read more

Elite is a boutique matchmaking service that few of my female friends used and highly recommended. Sherri and her staff are professional, kind, attentive and extremely respectful, especially with delicate matters such as sensitive feelings, love and desire to meet the right person for you, the one that can elevate you with their love. These ladies have a passion for what they do, they truly want to match you with someone wonderful who will light up your world. Besides doing what they promise to do -- which is to find your better half in very difficult, demanding and impatient dating market of LA and OC, these ladies go above and beyond to find you a match you could dream of. Once they help you meet a person you would like to be in serious relationship with and/or marry, the rest is up to you and that one guy/ girl who you consider a potential wonderful match and true love. Your happiness is up to you. My girlfriends have found serious relationships through Elite and now are no longer looking. Some of it is timing, preparedness, inner maturity, luck, some of it is knowing who you are and being honest with yourself and enlightened enough to know who that one person is that you could spend a considerable amount of your life with that hopefully amount to forever. I'm a romantic -- therefore I do believe in love. Sherri and the ladies of Elite are honest, kind, sensible, intelligent and professional. They do know exactly what you need before you can even pronounce it. read more

The only problem here is that many of the matchmakers are very good looking themselves, and those that are single will want to date THEM. LOL. Fortunately, the clients they send matches to are JUST as hot. I have met many of the women here and they are A-MAZING. I also know that this company does not accept just anyone, and those that get rejected often go ballistic from what I have seen. Lastly, some people are single and will die single for a reason. Not just because they are not finding the right match or because their matchmaker is terrible, but because they are simply a jackass. They will always point fingers and try shame and blame everyone else and never look at their own actions. I know of one guy who used this company who started talking about sex on the first date and was so wasted. What a lunatic! Then he sat at home and tried lying about my matchmaker on yelp. Hel-lo?! Sherri and Tammi and the other matchmakers here, a few others I have met, are super nice, professional, kind women that work hard and do a great job, and go out of their way to make people satisfied. Remember, be NICE, if you want to be treated that way in return--from your date, AND your matchmakers, and treat others how you would like to be treated yourself. Business owners should not be abused just because they are in business. Highly recommended company here. read more

I forgot to come back and post an update about how things progressed with this company. I think it was pure luck with the first match. It did not last long although we did have chemistry. She was not the person at all that was portrayed on her profile. The profiles are very shallow to begin with. There are not a lot of important details that make a lasting relationship. So for most successful men, we can all go out and find a good looking woman for a nice dinner date. I am seeking a long-term relationship leading to marriage. After the first date the entire experience was bad. Some of the women shared private details about their dates. They told me that the matchmaker asked them to go out with men that were much older and then they would work hard for them to find someone that was their ideal match. To add to the disappointment, I was not working with the person that signed me up. I was on the phone with very young, and inexperienced assistants. From that point on, I was only sent profiles of women that did not appeal to me. They may have a large database of women, but the quality is not there. Quality over quantity!! That is what counts. So they let any pretty face in and it just does not work. read more

This company is far away from "Elite" as you can get. I joined with Elite Connections and it was a total waste! As for matches, you get what their computer system thinks is suitable. I never heard from the "salesperson" after she signed me up. I left her several messages. I was handed off to Veronica and she never met me in person. The profile they make on your behalf is absolutely shallow! Every promise that was made never happened. After spending 25K, I was presented with 7 potential matches, none of whom I remotely liked and not in line with what I would look for in a date. I provided all the specifics during our meeting and was assured I would meet some of the women I was presented images of. I never met one of them. Once you were presented with totally unsuitable matches you have to wait 4 more weeks for the next profile/potential to be emailed to you. After seven profiles, they seemed to have run out of women and I was not given any matches. read more

I would recommend Elite Connections to anyone wanting to meet that special someone & doesn't have the time & doesn't have the desire to do online dating. The matchmakers are very professional yet somehow they make you feel like family. They meet with you in person & really get to know you & find out what you are & what you are not looking for. Tammi was my matchmaker & she was thorough & compassionate & helped eliminate the usual hassles that come along with dating. As a woman I appreciated having the peace of mind in knowing that every person Tammi had matched me with had already been through a criminal background check. She sent me matches that she had hand selected to fit my criteria. My experience with Elite has been a wonderful one. read more

Elite has been fantastic. They have shown incredible diligence, patience and professionalism. I worked primarily with Ashley and Sherri. They have taken unlimited time for me and are readily available and wanting to stay close during the process. They take the time to hear the feedback so that they can do their magic more and more accurately. A .com solution is no comparison to Elite. Even women that didn't work out were all potential fits. I never had a "what were they thinking" date. Ashley has been my main point of contact and I can't say enough about the tireless service she consistently provides. read more

I am super happy with my membership to Elite Connections! It was honestly one of the best decisions I made in my life. After college, I hardly went out anymore because I was so obsessed with work and between that and my little girl and gym and family, I had really no time to meet anyone. My matchmakers have done all the work for me, and I have met some super sweet guys! With one cute guy we went bowling downtown. I'd never been bowling before! So fun! One even proposed to me. I said no LOL! Because I'm not ready to take the plunge yet but its good to feel loved again. One day. read more

Fabulous very professional and caring team at Elite Connections! Their response to all needs questions and concerns were off the charts! One of the best decisions I've ever made and money well spent. My life changed for the better and so happy I've made the correct choice. Elite Connections vet clients thoroughly and have the talent necessary to connect perfectly. My life has improved for the better with Elite Connections as I quickly met an amazing man. Big hugs and thanks to Tammy, Veronica, Christina and the rest of the team at Elite Connections! read more

I would stay clear of this company. Things appeared ethical in the beginning but the entire process after has been very disappointing. The lady profiles they sent over are nothing like what we discussed. It seems they are allowing their computer to randomly select a profile. None of the women they have sent resemble the images of 'their clients' when we met. I called the owner and she never returned my call. I never post a negative review on companies but this experience feels degrading. I hope others don't get lured in. read more

Larry G. Veronica Swett was great to work with. When I texted or called her, she was very prompt in her response time. Veronica is very confident and professional as a match maker. She provided me a very complete and descriptive profile of a wonderful woman in my area. I want to thank Elite Connections and Veronica for the care and thoughtfulness in matching me with such a beautiful woman. read more

My experience was great with Elite Connections. Sherri and Tammi are very hands on and helped me meet the one. I didn't want to date online and wanted meet good matches. They delivered what they promised and they were a pleasure to work with. Thank you for all the hard work, I'm sure its not an easy task. They are truly professionals and I would highly recommended them. read more

I have to give Kari an excellent review as she listens to my needs . Which to me is very important . Been with her for the past several months , although my prince has not arrived yet .. I always look forward in meeting matches . They do have the caliber of men that I am looking for . Will recommend them and have to my friends . read more

Laurel made meeting the right person incredibly smooth. I can't think of a more civilized way to meet a quality person than this. Gone are the days of sifting through the chaff. Laurel is devoted to her work, and has an uncanny talent for finding that person who uniquely clicked for me. read more

Tammi is the best matchmaker,she is always checking with people to follow up their dates and trying to understand each person point of view.I have been with a matchmaking agency who was on tv for long time and they never meet me or ever called me after my first date with a guy Miha read more

Working with Sherri Murphy and Elite Connections, has been an amazing experience! She is so professional and well connected and I wouldn't use any other dating service. It has been a joy and pleasure and I am so excited about my future relationship! Thank you Sherri! read more

Thank heavens for Sherri and her team. I wasted time (and $$) elsewhere and she helped me find the man eventually I married. I had dated several of her guys and liked almost everyone but loved one enough to accept (and I'm not an easy match :) THANK YOU!!! read more
