Extraordinary Encounters Speed Dating was formed in 2003 in Hampton Roads Virginia. Extraordinary Encounters New Owner Andrea Locke has expanded its company covering the entire United States.

"Speed Dating is designed for the busy, professional singleton," commented Mary Jones, Marketing and Promotions Director. "We wish to create a relaxed, private environment for singles to meet other singles in their demographic and leave with a smile on their face. We will make it a fun, learning experience so that striking up a conversation with a stranger won't be so awkward the next time."

Extraordinary Encounters Dating's concept is to copy the metropolitan trend of "speed dating". The facilitators have a mission: relaxed first impressions and fun! They facilitate the events together and stand by to serve as mentors to guide the participants. They give first-impression hints, explain what comes next, time the conversations, and mingle throughout and after the event. They collect the match/no match form and responsibly give contact information to both parties, but only if that spark is there on both sides.

Put simply: EED strives to create a safe, fun, and relaxed environment to meet busy professionals in the United States area in a selective manner. While Extraordinary Encounters Dating's audience is dynamic, its mission will remain constant - a fun, safe outreach tool for meeting like singles. All this personal service is available to you, at the best value in the United States. TODAY!

On February 2005 EED teamed up with HRDating, which was founded by Ash Gilpin. Ash is also responsible for our website and all its great updates! OH and by the way; Ash is also single! I am working on a photo for the website.
