What we’re about
Make real friends with respect, intention, and authenticity.
Welcome to our space designed for respectful individuals in Utah who are looking to build meaningful friendships—without drama, cliques, or superficial interactions.
We believe that genuine connections happen in the right setting, which is why our events take place in carefully selected venues that foster real conversations and engaging social experiences—not in places where people feel uncomfortable. Our goal is to help you meet like-minded individuals who share your values and are open to genuine friendships and connections.
We value inclusion, respect, and integrity. Discrimination has no place here. Whether you're LDS, of a different faith, or non-religious, you're welcome. Everyone deserves a space to build authentic friendships without judgment.
### What Makes Our Group Different?
✅ A no-drama, no-cliques environment where people genuinely want to make new friends.
✅ A community mindset, where members support and uplift each other.
If you’re tired of surface-level conversations and want to meet people who are kind, and respectful, this is the group for you. Join us and let’s create lasting friendships together!

### 🌹 Welcome to Slow Dating — A Meaningful Way to Connect
Tired of dating apps and speed dating events that feel more like job interviews than genuine moments?
Slow Dating is for people who want something deeper — more human, intentional, and real.
At this cozy 2-hour event, you’ll have one-on-one conversations with carefully selected participants based on what actually matters: your values, personality, and relationship goals.
Each connection lasts about 30 to 45 minutes, giving you time to be seen, heard, and truly connect — no awkward rush, no surface-level small talk.***
### 💬 Why This Is Different
- No pressure. No games.
- Matches made based on compatibility, not just looks.
- A relaxed, elegant setting with real conversation.
- Forget the apps — this is genuine, face-to-face energy.

### 💡 How Matching Works
When you fill out the questionnaire, we’ll analyze your answers and compare them with others'.
If your compatibility score with someone is 50% or higher, it’s considered a match, meaning there’s enough common ground to spark something real.
At the event, you’ll sit with your matches for intentional, 30–45-minute conversations. This is your chance to go beyond the form and explore real chemistry, presence, and shared goals.
After each conversation, you’ll have a private follow-up chat with me. You’ll let me know if you’d like to continue seeing that person or if there’s no interest. If it's mutual, we’ll help exchange info. If not, we’ll move on to your next best match.***
### 📝 Your Role: Fill Out the Form Honestly
Please take your time and be as honest as possible. The more authentic your answers, the more accurate and meaningful your matches will be.
