Half of the men left as a couple tonight in Ginza.
Another successful event on the run-up to Christmas. It's always a good time for events at Exeo International, due to the romantic connotations of Christmas here in Japan.
Have a merry Christmas and happy new year!

No coupling at Roppongi parties.
This was another very successful Roppongi party. For those of you who don't know, this party is unlike our other events. It's all 'free-style'. Basically, theres no speed dating, and indeed no format of any kind really. It's all just mingling really. Everyone can speak to whoever they want whenever they want. There's also alcohol and some food available at the bar. All round, it's a very different event to our usual Friday night parties.
This was another successful one, albeit slightly smaller than previous events, and with not such a good balance. Simon was away for the days leading up to the event and indeed for the event itself, and since quite a few women signed up last minute, we ended up with not such a good balance. We are used to having more women than men though, and it was no issue. There was still a great atmopshere at the event, and everyone (including the staff I think!) had a great time.

Quite a big party last night with a very good M:F balance. Most of the guests left as a couple too, which is pretty unusual for an event of this size. It's not so often that the number of couples will go into double figures, and it's normally a bigger event than this.
Perhaps with Christmas coming up in 6 weeks, some people were looking extra hard for someone to spend it with. As you maybe know, Christmas is a time for love in Japan, and is more of a season for couples than for families. Family time is New Year for Japanese people. So anyway, perhaps that was it, or perhaps it was just random. Our events do often seem to be pretty random in terms of... well, pretty much everything really. This was definitely one of the good ones though!

A decent night tonight in Umeda. There was a decent balance (although it was quite a small event), and half of the men made matches.
The numbers of guests at our events has been a little bit random of late, some weeks will only have around 25 in total, others will have over 40. A difference like that may not seem like much, but it makes a big difference in terms of the amount of time we can give guests to speak to each other.
We usually get men according to how many women are signed up, so that's why the numbers can be random. We don't aggressively sell these parties to women, so it's simply how many choose to sign themselves up.

As usual, most of the men at tonight's Ginza event left with a date.

Most of the guests at tonight's Ginza event left with a date. It was a good atmosphere throughout and there were lots of nice looking ladies. Lots of new faces (both men and women) tonight as well.
Come along sometime if you can. The events are always fun, even if you don't make a match.

We're proud to say that there are almost always more women than men at our events. Tonight though was one of the rare exceptions.
All of the men showed up (including a couple who hadn't completed their reservations), and a few women didn't show, meaning we ended up with more men than women. Doesn't happen often. Still most of the men (and women) left with a couple though anyway.
I'm sure next week will be different, we already have lots if women signed up for our Ginza event on the 12th. Back to business as usual then I guess.

A little imbalanced tonight in Umeda, with 11 men and 17 women. A few guys didn't show up unfortunately, which left us with not enough guys. That's why we have the cancellation fees!
The party went well though, and everyone was cheery despite the awkward imbalance. The atmosphere was good and lots of couples were made. 8 couples out of a possible 11 is pretty good going, even by our standards.
Next month's Umeda events are on the 5th and the 19th. Come along if you can!

Most of the men left with a date following tonight's Ginza event.
A good atmosphere at the event, and a successful night all round. It was a big event without being too hectic. When there are more than 20 women, things tend to get quite chaotic, as there is so little time to talk to each women. The flip side though is obviously that you get to meet more women.
Simon is away for next week's event, but will be back for the first event of June on the 7th.

Our best event so far in Roppongi, with a great atmosphere and a lot of fun had by all. Not many people seemed to leave by themselves, which is a great testament. It was good to share a drink with some of the regulars after the event too.
