How It Works

✦

Four elegant steps from registration to your next great connection

1
First Step

Register & Pay

Choose your event and purchase your ticket directly here. Spots are limited and always sell out — don't wait.

2
Arrival

Show Up & Settle In

Arrive at a beautiful Boston venue. Welcome drink, warm lighting, and your host making sure everyone feels at home from the very first moment.

3
The Main Event

Speed Date!

Meet a series of wonderful Jewish singles in short, lively rounds. Your host handles all the timing. All you have to do is be yourself.

4
The Magic

Discover Your Match

Mutual interest? We'll connect you both discreetly. From there — coffee, a walk along the Charles, or wherever the two of you want to take it.

Why We're Different

Community. Connection. Chemistry.

✦

JSDB was created to do one thing well: create the conditions for real, meaningful connections between Jewish singles in our city.

Authentically Jewish

Every evening is built around Jewish community at its heart — not a generic singles event with a label attached.

Age-Matched Evenings

Separate events by age bracket mean conversations feel natural — you meet people at the same stage of life.

Boston Through & Through

Beautiful local venues, a warm community feel, and fellow Bostonians who share your world. No generic banquet halls — ever.

Low Pressure, High Fun

The format handles everything awkward. Just show up, be yourself, and enjoy the evening. Most people leave saying it was far more fun than expected.

Moriah Sandidge, founder of Jewish Speed Dating Boston
Meet Your Host

I'm Moriah.

I spent years trying to find my partner the hard way — apps, mismatched setups, friends of friends, the whole circuit. I know how exhausting it is to keep showing up hoping this is the one that finally lands.

I eventually did find him. We're married now and just welcomed our first baby. I'm running JSDB because the room I wished existed back then — small, intentionally Jewish, no swiping, no algorithms — nobody was building it for our community here in Boston. So I built one.

JSDB isn't a swipe pile or a 200-person mixer. It's a room small enough that you'll talk to every single person in it, intimate enough that conversation actually goes somewhere, and intentionally Jewish so you can stop translating what your bubbe said over Shabbat.

Every evening is hosted personally — by me, in the room. You'll know who's running the show, who to find if something needs fixing, and who to thank if you find your bashert.

A Few of the People in the Room

Who Comes to JSDB

✦

JSDB events draw a mix of Boston Jewish singles — people who've decided they're done with the apps, or never were really on them. A few archetypes you'll meet:

✦

The 34-year-old who's been on every app, deleted them all, and decided this year is for in-person only.

✦

The 47-year-old who's recently single after a long relationship — curious, not pressured.

✦

The 29-year-old whose grandma keeps asking and finally decided, fine, she'd try one.

✦

The 52-year-old who isn't looking for fast — just a room with people who already get the cultural shorthand.

You'll see yourself in someone here. That's the point.

"

There's a difference between matching with someone Jewish on an app and walking into a room where you don't have to translate yourself. That's the room we built.

Questions & Answers

Before You Arrive

✦

Everything you need to know to show up feeling confident and excited

i.

Do I need to be Jewish to attend?

Yes — our events are specifically for Jewish singles. You should identify as Jewish to attend. This isn't gatekeeping; it's about creating a space where everyone already has a genuine foundation in common.

ii.

How does the matching process work after the event?

After the evening, you'll receive a link to indicate who you'd like to connect with. If you and another person both expressed interest, we'll share each other's contact info. It's completely discreet — no one ever knows if you didn't select them.

iii.

I've never done speed dating before and I'm a little nervous. Is that okay?

Completely okay — nearly everyone feels that way before their first event. The structure removes social pressure. Your host handles all timing and transitions, there are conversation prompts at each seat, and the format means you never have to figure out how to end a conversation. Most attendees walk out surprised by how natural it felt.

iv.

What age groups do you host events for?

We host separate events for different age brackets so everyone meets people at a compatible stage of life. Check our Events page for what's coming up — and join our waitlist below for personal notification when each event opens for registration.

v.

What is the cancellation and refund policy?

Full refunds for cancellations at least 7 days before the event. Within 7 days, we'll issue a credit toward a future event. Life happens — just email us at info@jewishspeeddatingboston.com and we'll take care of you.

vi.

How many people attend each event?

Each evening is intentionally capped — limited spots, with a carefully balanced gender ratio. You'll have a real conversation with every person in the room. Quality over quantity is the entire point.

vii.

What should I wear?

Smart casual is the vibe — think a nice dinner with friends. You want to feel your best, but there's no need to overdress. The main thing is that you feel comfortable and confident.

viii.

What about dietary restrictions?

Our venues serve a variety of options. If you have dietary needs (kosher, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, etc.), email us at info@jewishspeeddatingboston.com when you register and we'll work with the venue so you're taken care of.

ix.

Do I have to be religiously observant?

No. Jewish identity comes in many forms — cultural, secular, Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, in the process of converting, interfaith family, reconnecting after a long break. You're welcome. We just ask that Judaism is meaningfully part of who you are.

x.

Are events open to LGBTQ Jewish singles?

Right now our events match men with women. We haven't run an LGBTQ mixer yet — we want to do it right, with the right venue and a full room. Join the LGBTQ interest list below and you'll be first to know when it opens. Your sign-up also tells us which format and age bracket to run first.

xi.

Can I bring a friend?

Yes, but they'll need their own ticket. Speed dating works best when everyone in the room is single and looking. We ask that anyone attending be there for themselves, not as a plus-one or supporter.

xii.

Is there parking?

Yes. Parking details are texted along with the venue address the day before the event. Most of our MetroWest venues have on-site parking or street parking within a short walk.

xiii.

What if I don't see an age bracket that fits me?

Join our mailing list and email us with what age range you're hoping for. We add events based on demand. If enough people in your bracket sign up to the list, that's the next event we run.
