At Little Black Book we pride ourselves on the relationship we have with our clients. Here’s what a few of them have to say about us:

“Things are still going very well with Edward - over the last few months we’ve spent lots of time together (even managed a weekend away in Norfolk) and I am introducing him to my parents in a few weeks.

I suppose I had hopes (not expectations) that this would be a process which would bear fruit. He is exactly the right type of person for me at this point in my life and I genuinely feel like it has prompted a much needed shift towards a better life/work balance. I’m very happy and hope I will be for a long time yet. 

Thank you so much to you and Abi,

Lucy”

“Hi Kate

I hope you're well. I just wanted to give you an update as you introduced myself and *** nearly 5 years ago now (I can't believe it)! We welcomed our daughter **** a few weeks ago & we're just settling in back home. We'll always be incredibly grateful to you for setting us up.

Best, Carmen”

“Oh wow, what a match! Upon first impressions (a 2 hour call), some things which came up which brought the match to another level! We are definitely exploring where things will go with enthusiasm and excitement. This girl sounds, looks, and her energy feels amazing! 

There was a small part of the conversation about how we met Kate W and we shared the same view .. "Kate is such a nice, pleasant, personal and she is not so commercial. Her love for what she does comes across so much!" . It came up because I am totally convinced (not just with this last match) that you really love, but also totally know what you are doing!

The video call felt as if it could continue forever. There is a next date idea agreed and both looking forward to it.

To be continued... ;-)

 “Things have been going tremendously well and we have been enjoying a wonderful start to what feels like a really special relationship over these last few weeks. 

Importantly, I would also like to say a huge thank you to you. I wouldn’t be in this exciting relationship with an inspiring and like minded lady if it wasn’t for all your help and support in my return to the dating world over the last year.

I had some very enjoyable dates with the matches that you unearthed, all of which gave me a lot of confidence (and some good lessons learned). I also really valued the other components of the package, be it the styling session, the photo shooting or the coaching with James. 

I won’t hesitate to recommend your service whenever I get the opportunity. 

Thanks again, and all the best “

“Thanks Kate. You're the best of matchmakers, and that's me speaking from experience!

Have a great day, you've earned it.”

“Joining Little Black London took me out of the depressing world of online dating and introduced me to a new way of finding a partner. Kate really took the time to understand me, my past relationships and what was most important to me in a relationship. She challenged my typical type and made me much more willing to at least go on a date with people that I probably would never have considered online. The result was I met some really lovely guys, had some nice dates and in the end found someone who is just perfect for me.”

"Kate set me up on a blind date about 10 years ago. She knew a guy that had scruffy hair, wore Hawaiian shirts and was twice my height that she said was perfect for me...?! I wasn't sure, she was sure, and after a little perseverance and a lot of reassurance from Kate, I agreed. She asked me how the date was, I blushed and a wedding and two small people later we're happily married. 

Kate has an instinct about who you will get along with, even if on paper (or a computer screen) it doesn't look right. Her sense of humour  coupled with her ability to put you at ease ("what's the worse that can happen?") allows her to filter the information she needs to find you a perfect match .  We've nicknamed her 'The Weaver', as she's able to elaborately entwine people together. 

Whenever I see Kate my first question is always "How many now?", meaning how many couples has she got together, it's a lot…"

I'd been single for about 5 years and frankly had given up! Being busy with work and hanging out with married friends and family, meant that I had switched off from 'looking' to meet someone. Kate gave me the push I needed and followed it up with encouragement and confidence.  With her help I met Mark and we've been together and happy for 6 months already!  Kate was right, you don't know what's around the corner but you certainly need to go looking for it.  

Thanks so much Kate, I really hope I don't need your services again but I highly recommend you to anyone, if they're serious about wanting to meet someone.

"I was 30, perennially single and having no luck in the dating game, so Kate offered to set me up. Even at that stage, she had something of a reputation as a successful matchmaker so I figured 'what the hell' and went for it. 

Clearly matchmaking is way more art than science. So I met a couple of different girls, had great fun, but there was no real chemistry. Kate persisted though and was clearly finding out more about me and learning from my feedback.  I'm happy to report that it was very much third time lucky! Just over 3 years later, Kate and her husband  were guests at our wedding.   I would normally dismiss this as luck but we are one of a number of couples that Kate has set up who have ended up married. So clearly she is doing something right and has something of a 6th sense! "

Dylan - Earlsfield

Many moons ago I was living the single life and was always on the look out for the right man.  Sadly I lacked the ability to pick the right ones but thankfully Kate didn't.

I was trying my hand at matchmaking, between two friends.  However,  Kate intuitively knew I was wrong about the  couple I had in mind.  Thankfully she stepped in with a better suggestion for my male friend. It was me! I hadn't realised what I needed and what's more he was  right in front of me.  It instantly felt obvious and a week later we were officially dating. 12 years on we are married and parents to a fabulous son. Thanks Kate!
