             Today’s Professional Matchmakers









      BY KATHLEEN MULROY


          A famous song in the musical Fiddler on
      the Roof, sung by a woman who wants to get
      married, includes the line “Matchmaker,
      matchmaker, make me a match; Find me
      a find, catch me a catch!” Professional
      village matchmakers like the one in Fiddler
      have been around for as long as formal
      marriage customs have existed. But these
      days, some singles are finding matches in a
      more modern way—online, through match-
      making websites featuring lush photos of
      hearts, flowers, and happy couples strolling
      through green fields.
          You might be wondering whether a pro-
      fessional matchmaking service is different
      from an online dating app. In fact, the two
      types of companies are different in a few
      significant ways.
      MATCHMAKING SERVICES
          Matchmaking companies, unlike dating
      websites, say they work with just a small
      group of people at any given time, so the
      matchmaker can take time to get to know
      each person.

      ple, says its matchmaker will spend about          Matchmaking companies, unlike dating websites, say they work with just a small group of people at any
      an hour talking with you to learn about            given time, so the matchmaker can take time to get to know each person. Photo courtesy Autumns Goddess,
