Personalized Matchmaking
A 6-month, intention-driven matchmaking experience for singles who are ready to meet someone real — and ready to actually give that connection a chance.
Who This Is For
This program is best suited for someone who knows themselves well, is emotionally ready for partnership, and is willing to slow down — to actually get to know someone before deciding whether they’re “the one” or not. If you’re looking for instant chemistry or someone to swipe past in five seconds, this isn’t that. If you’re ready to be present, curious, and a little patient with the process, this is for you.
How It Works
You’ll work one-on-one with Celine as your personal matchmaker. Her approach blends traditional matchmaking with mindfulness and empathic intention — taking time to truly understand who you are, what you value, and what you’re calling into your life, holding that same intentional space when considering who might be right for you. This is a collaborative effort: together, we learn from each match what you truly value in life and in a partner. Over six months, you’ll receive six curated, personalized matches — real people, thoughtfully chosen, never algorithm-generated. A professional photo session is included as part of the program. After each introduction, you’ll talk through how it went, what you noticed, and what it’s teaching you about what you want.
Where your matches come from: Celine’s introductions are sourced primarily from her own personal network, which she actively grows through ongoing recruiting. She also collaborates with a closed group of trusted matchmakers who meet monthly to discuss clients and make introductions when there’s a genuine fit. Dating apps may be used as an additional recruiting tool — anyone sourced that way goes through the same vetting as anyone else before you ever hear their name.
What “vetted” actually means: before you’re introduced to anyone, Celine has had a phone conversation with them, a video call to get a real read on who they are, run a background check, and thought specifically about whether they’re right for you — not just generally suitable.
After each introduction, you’ll debrief with Celine — what worked, what didn’t, what you noticed — and that feedback shapes the next match. You’ll also have access to coaching and strategy sessions by phone, video, or in person, and Celine responds to messages within two business days.
You’re free to date outside the program at any time — clients often find that once they put intentional energy into their dating life, they naturally become more attractive to others.
Before a date, a match sees only a limited bio — a photo and general stats. Nothing more without your say-so.
