Featured on the season 20 premiere of Sister Wives

When Reality TV Meets Real-Life Connections: Our Speed Dating Event in the Spotlight

What happens when the fast-paced world of reality television collides with the authentic magic of face-to-face connections? You get one unforgettable night of speed dating, captured on camera for millions to see!

We’re beyond excited to share that our recent Strike your Match Speed Dating event will be featured in Season 20 of Sister Wives! (Yes, that show—the one known for its wild drama, heartfelt moments, and a few unexpected love stories along the way.)

How It All Happened

When the producers of Sister Wives reached out looking for an opportunity for one of their cast members to speed date, we knew our event would be the perfect fit. They wanted real reactions, real chemistry, and real people—and let’s be honest, speed dating delivers all of that and more.

Our event brought singles together in the cozy, intimate setting of Church & State Marketplace with just the right mix of nervous energy and excitement. The cameras were rolling, but the focus stayed on genuine connections. And spoiler alert: there were sparks, surprises, and a few moments that will definitely make it to the highlight reel.

Why Reality TV Needed Speed Dating

In a dating world dominated by DMs and algorithms, speed dating is refreshingly human. There’s no profile pic to hide behind, no curated bio—just you, a timer, and the person sitting across from you. It’s fast, fun, and sometimes hilariously awkward. But it’s real. That’s exactly what Sister Wives wanted to capture.

For the single on the show, it was a chance to step out of the TV bubble and into a setting where first impressions really count. And for our local participants, it was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to mingle with the cast, with a front-row seat to the unscripted magic of reality TV.

The Best Part? The Connections Were Genuine.

Even with cameras in the room, the vibe was authentic. We saw real conversations, real laughter, and (yes!) a few real matches. Speed dating has always been about bringing people together in a way that apps just can’t replicate. Seeing it play out on a televised platform reminded us why we love what we do.

What’s Next?

Whether you’re reality TV-level bold or just looking for a low-pressure way to meet new people, our upcoming speed dating events are for everyone ready to make a real connection. (Cameras optional.)

Be sure to catch the episode airing on September 28 —and keep an eye out for a few familiar faces (maybe even yours at our next event!).
