About us
We're based right here in Portland, Oregon, where the vibe is warm, the coffee is strong, and people still believe in real connections. The Orchid Haze Singles Collective is all about bringing locals together in a city that values authenticity and creativity, making it the perfect backdrop for meeting someone who truly gets you. Whether it's a cozy wine tasting in Nob Hill or a group hike at Forest Park, we plan our events with Portlanders in mind thoughtful, down to earth, and open hearted.
Our long term vision is to build more than just a series of meetups we want to create a community where genuine relationships can grow over time. Weβre not about quick matches or superficial sparks; weβre here for the slow burn, the deep conversations, and the kind of love that feels like coming home. We picture members supporting each other beyond romance, celebrating milestones and building lasting friendships along the way.
While our focus is on personal connection, not professional networking, you never know where a great conversation might lead. That said, we keep the emphasis on emotional chemistry and shared values, not business cards and LinkedIn profiles. The connections here start with laughter over shared interests and turn into something meaningful because they're rooted in real moments, not transactions.
If you're tired of swiping through endless profiles and craving something more authentic, this is your sign to step into a different kind of singles scene. The Orchid Haze Singles Collective is for people who believe love is worth waiting for and meeting for. Come as you are, ready to engage, open your heart, and maybe just find the one while exploring your own city in fun, low pressure ways. We canβt wait to welcome you in.
