Fancy another singles night?
Join us at Farr's on Wednesday 27 May for some flirting, speed dating, and dancing
Hello everyone,
I hope you’re having lovely Sundays. I’m fresh off the back of having done two very successful singles nights, and frankly, I’m feeling the love. I spotted lots of couplings, and I’ve heard rumours of dates and even blossoming relationships that have developed from previous events.
There’s nothing like being in a room full of people who’ve shown up to take a risk, put themselves out there, and try something new. I know that coming to a singles night is daunting (I’m single too!), but what always blows me away at these events is how quickly those anxieties dissipate once everyone realises we’re all in the same boat. The atmosphere it creates is really rather special, not least because the people who come along to Red Lips tend to be the coolest, funnest, and kindest people I’ve ever met.
One of the highlights from my night with Bumble this week was walking into the women’s bathroom to find a group of girls who’d just met, sharing stories about their dating lives and exchanging numbers. There are so many meaningful connections we can make with one another if we give it a chance. And we really must.
We’re starved of IRL human connection these days; I’m always amazed at our capacity to ignore one another on the street, in pubs, and on public transport. We feel safer in our social and digital siloes, so we stay within them. But there’s so much magic to be found when we take a little step into the unknown and see what’s out there. Yes, that is a quote from Frozen 2. It’s a very good film.
So, this is my long way of saying that I’ve decided to host another singles night at the end of the month. We’ll be returning to Farr’s in Dalston for some flirting, speed dating, and dancing, with a DJ set provided by Vanessa MLC.
Tickets are available here.
Remember, tickets are sold in pairs. Each £40 ticket includes one female and one male entry.
I can’t wait to see you there. Do come up and say hello. It’s always such a treat to meet you.
Lots of love,
Olivia xoxo
