I joined LUMA cautiously after feeling somewhat discouraged by modern dating apps and unsure…read morewhether matchmaking would truly feel more intentional or compatible. I've tried nearly every major dating app over the years, met many interesting people, and even had meaningful long-term relationships through them. But I repeatedly found myself meeting people who were ultimately not emotionally available or truly oriented toward long-term commitment and partnership. I've been genuinely pleasantly surprised by my experience so far, especially working with Gina. What has stood out most to me is that the matches have felt thoughtful beyond just surface-level compatibility. In a short period of time, I've already met people I likely never would have crossed paths with otherwise, and the conversations felt emotionally mature, engaging, and surprisingly aligned in values and personality. One thing I especially appreciate is that the introductions did not match my assumptions based on photos or resumes alone. Both people ended up being very different, in positive ways, from what I initially expected. That made me realize there is real care and intuition behind the matchmaking process. Gina has been exceptionally warm, attentive, encouraging, and genuinely invested in understanding compatibility beyond surface traits. The entire experience has made dating feel more human, reflective, and hopeful again rather than transactional or exhausting. What feels fundamentally different to me compared to app dating is the level of intentionality. It's difficult to screen for emotional availability, relationship readiness, and genuine commitment orientation on swipe-based apps. Through LUMA, I've felt introduced to people who are serious about building meaningful partnership and approaching dating with maturity and self-awareness. I still have no idea where any particular connection may lead, but for the first time in a long time I feel optimistic about meeting emotionally compatible people in a more intentional way. I'm grateful to Gina and to LUMA for the experience so far.

I still believe a good matchmaking service could save professionals so much time - they just need to be executed better. NOTE: I only paid to be IN the database (I think this was $200 or $250 - no guaranteed dates but you have a shot at being set up with a paid client), and never paid the higher fee to be set up on a date. Pros: The meetups ARE good! You have a chance to meet and hit it off with someone in real life, and they set these up for various age ranges. I did go on a date with a guy I met at one of these meet ups. We had a lot in common but not quite a romantic spark. Cons: I was reached out to about 2 dates. I don't think you ever get a photo prior to the set up. The first person was a 52 year old man. I am 34, and this was outside my age range (+/- 5 years), so I turned it down. The second one I accepted, but honestly I should have asked more questions. I never got this man's age and assumed he'd be within my range given I turned down the first one but he appeared to be 50s as well (just a guess), was VERY socially awkward, and since I agreed to the set up I felt it would be rude to leave early. Had I known the guys age or had a photo - I would never have accepted. From this experience, I actually feel like going to meetups or using the apps ARE better options. I am able to at least see a photo beforehand (which can save SO much time and awkwardness), and get important points such as age, marital status, etc up front. I ended up meeting my SO on a popular app, which consequently is how Abby met hers per her podcast, Ghosted, where she does have interesting guests and share advice.

I have been a fully paid client of social matchmaking. I have to say I'm impressed. 20 years ago,…read morewhen I wanted to get married and have kids, I hired another matchmaker in Denver and I felt it was a bit of bait and switch. Because of that experience, I was much more circumspect going in. This time. I interviewed over 12 different matchmakers. Abby was the only one who had a formal process and methodology. Her references also told me that she was very ethical. In short, I discovered that matchmaking is a seedy business, but Abby is the top in her field and really once the best value match for everyone Keep in mind, she can't determine chemistry. Only you can. But what she can do is determine a values match. And everyday I've been on so far reflects that. The men she introduces to me, a quality, quality men and are aligned with what I'm looking for. If you're still on the fence, then I implore you to listen to a number of her podcasts. That really helped me get to know her, understand how she is a constant learner, and helped me hone what I was looking for before I plunked down the fee to work with her.

Hi. I met Kendra and Chris at a Meet-up they were hosting. I liked their approach to relationships…read moreand being because they are not heavy about life. I experience them to be authentic AND skillful, and they teach/help others how to do that too. They offered a package deal to meet privately with clients which I tried. I was happy (and amazed) that in just a few sessions they were able to find the core issue and provide direction on how to heal and grow. My experience is that's remarkable. Also, they do their work with an ease and grace that helped me also relax with the process. I think Kendra is a natural. She has integrated training and education into a natural expression. She ties together understanding from various disciplines and makes it all make sense. She's very intelligent, which I didn't see coming because she's got this shining red hair and pretty smile that distracted me. Chris has his own strength and insight which provides a good compliment and support to Kendra. I highly recommend them. They helped me, and quickly too, considering how long I know it can take others to get right to it. Lee H. -Lafayette, CO

I debated whether or not to employ her - my thought process, dating is a numbers game (as much as she denies it, but it's reality), the more people you meet the better the chances. How can an independent, working out of her home, adding no real value, have a large clientele? She doesn't. Once you begin with her, it feels just like filling out an online dating application. Her only real value add is commenting on picture quality, and maybe, offering a female perspective on style. She was critical of my pictures (you need to smile more), even tho' I've received plenty of attention on other services with the same images. I'm a +6', successful male, attractive, very fit, and financially secure. She suggests she has a rigorous screening process, and yes, some of the women were accomplished in their fields (but honestly, that's not all that important to men), but there are other clients loaded with tattoos - not what I'd expect from a "selective" service. I might have looked at 20 profiles, not one I'd classify as a "maybe". If you're looking for a quality woman, this isn't the venue. Over 2 years, not one date. To her credit she kept in contact (1 email/6mo), but unless you need a lot of coaching, you are much better off with the apps as dismal as they are.

Hello, fellow daters! I wanted to share my experience with It's Just Lunch after completing my…read more6-month membership. I took a leap of faith and invested several thousand dollars, hoping to meet someone who would be a great match. During my membership, I went on a total of eight dates. While I met some genuinely nice and attractive men, every match lived more than an hour from where I live. I shared my concerns with my matchmaker multiple times, explaining that the distance was becoming a significant obstacle. Unfortunately, they continued to match me with people who were not geographically compatible. Although It's Just Lunch focuses on the Denver Metro area, I don't consider places like Fort Collins to be part of the practical Denver Metro dating area when you're looking at regular, long-term dating. The biggest challenge wasn't the quality of the men--it was the distance. It quickly became a barrier for both of us and made it difficult to build a relationship. My membership ended in May 2026, and because of the cost, I won't be renewing. That said, I do want to recognize the positives. The team handled all of the date planning, communicated well throughout the process, and always listened to my feedback. However, for the price of the membership, I expected my concerns about location to be reflected in future matches. Unfortunately, that never changed. Even if the membership were more affordable, I still wouldn't sign up for another six months because geographic compatibility didn't seem to be a priority. I hope this honest review helps anyone considering the service. Your experience may be different, but for me, distance ultimately outweighed the benefits.

It gives you time until the right person appears. The men I have met through her service are high quality individuals. Who knows, maybe the next guy I meet through her service will be my last first date. :) Michele is also ethical and won't accept clients who she knows won't fit in with her clientele. In my mind, this makes her really trustworthy. She is direct, incredibly supportive and empathetic--she genuinely cares about her clients and the service she provides. I know she has my best interests in mind because she vets potential clients. Her service is very hands on and she coaches her clients--so you have to be able to communicate honestly with good rapport. She has been doing this for 30 years. This is her calling. Only a person confident in their service and with a strong track record of success would offer an open-ended contract (all the other local services in town contract for a certain period of time and charge, in my humble opinion, confiscatory amounts). Her website has a ton of great information and the goal isn't to provide you with a million matches. The goal is to zero in on what her clients are looking for and for them to find a strong connection with one of the first few people they meet. We are so fortunate to have such a fantastic legitimate matchmaker in town. If you are reading her website and going through reviews and think this could be a good fit for you--give her a call!
