- -Steve, Charlotte, NC
“I’ve used several matchmaking services in the past, but never found success. I’m very selective, but Laurie was able to find a match for me and we’ve been dating for 10+ months.”
- -Trish, Wilmington, NC
“The prospect of dating in my late sixties after losing my husband was overwhelming. If it hadn’t been for the support and coaching of Laurie and her crew at Carolinas Matchmaker, I probably wouldn’t have attempted the adventures of online dating.
The Date Coaching process began with a Zoom virtual closet styling session with their stylist. She helped me find outfits that I would feel confident in for a photo shoot and dating. They then arranged for a professional photo shoot and worked with me to craft an interesting, well-written profile. After my profile went live on Match, Laurie and her staff met with me for weekly Zoom coaching sessions to select five appropriate prospects. They taught me how to initiate and continue conversations with prospective dates and also ran background checks before I met with someone in person.
Many of the men I have connected with have told me how my pictures and profile stand out online. Thanks to Laurie and her staff, I have dated several interesting men. I’m currently dating a fascinating man and looking forward to where the future will take us. If you’re looking for professional expertise to help you navigate the shark-infested waters of online dating, Carolinas Matchmaker is well worth the investment.”
- -Kay, Raleigh, NC
“Laurie truly is an amazing person. I signed up for her dating coaching and our first conversation turned into a therapy session that I didn’t even know I needed! In all her expertise, she quickly noticed that I had been inadvertently sabotaging my own dating life. I was in a major slump moving towards depression and I didn’t even realize it was happening. Dating was way too hard, work sucked, I was injured, worked from home in my PJ’s every day, and I never slept at night. Laurie worked with me to get me out of my slump, and we put a plan into action! She checked in on me daily with goals and tasks to keep me on track so that when I do meet Mr. Right, I would be ready for him! She really took the time to make sure I was in the best headspace to be able to sustain a healthy relationship.
I then attended her online dating Bootcamp and we fixed up my dating profile with a killer bio and awesome-looking, professional photos. I’m so happy that we put in the groundwork upfront to facilitate a fulfilling dating experience for me. Laurie really cares about her clients, and I would highly recommend taking the chance and going on this journey with Carolinas Matchmaker.”
- -Annie, Chapel Hill, NC
“What a gift Laurie’s business has been to the community. She honors the traditions of matchmaking with a modern flair and respect for her customers’ wishes and needs.”
- -Sally, Apex, NC
“Laurie is super talented at bringing people together and helping her clients find their match. She has years of experience and an intuitive sense for introducing people that bring each other love and happiness.
The less obvious part of what Laurie does, but perhaps the most important, is the coaching she does for her clients. She prepares them so they are ready for their dates. This could mean advice on how to interact on a date, what to wear, or being open to someone that is a better fit than the men or women you have been dating. Whether it’s a full matchmaking service or helping you build an authentic and flattering online dating profile she is top-notch. Her heart is in everything she does and Laurie gets the best results for her clients.”
- -Christopher, Pittsboro, NC
“Laurie was so professional and enthusiastic about leading a search for me with her excellent staff. I wholeheartedly recommend her services and enjoyed working with her.”
- -Kent, Blowing Rock, NC
“I came to Laurie several years after the end of my 29-year marriage. I had not dated much in my youth so the prospect of finding a new partner was daunting, to say the least. I decided that hiring a professional matchmaker made sense, much like hiring a lawyer to deal with complex legal matters. After all, there are few decisions which are going to have more impact on your life than who you are going to live with.
Laurie has a reputation for being one of the best and deservedly so – an area where she and her team especially helped me was with coaching and getting me up to speed on how dating works. Especially important was support in helping me figure out what I was looking for in a partner, and finding someone who was also serious about finding a new partner.
I’m now in a relationship with a wonderful lady, and feel that working with Laurie was worth every penny!”
- -Arthur, Concord, NC
“Laurie and her staff are great. They thoroughly interview the clients and are very intentional and careful when matching you. They follow up after each match and even offer some advice and coaching. I highly recommend them.”
- -Stephen, Oak Island, NC
“Laurie and her team are fantastic! My time working with Laurie and her staff definitely was a positive experience. Gained a lot of knowledge. Very grateful to have their insight. Love their honesty and straightforward approach. Highly recommend!”
- -Zach, Wrightsville Beach, NC
“I have known Laurie for some time. She and her handpicked team work tirelessly for their clients. She is a wise and kind counselor and truly believes in her mission to help people with the journey of personal growth and relationships. She’s the kind of friend and advisor that everyone wished they had.”
- -Barbara, Hillsborough, NC
“I have worked with Laurie and her team and was very impressed and pleased with their professionalism. They are a wonderful resource for putting your best self forward in the dating world. Their packaging and advice was valuable and effective in identifying dating prospects and then guiding you when you are dating. They are a great professional resource like your accountant or lawyer.”
- -Sarah, Raleigh, NC
“Carolinas Matchmaker helped me think through how to position what I wanted for my future as it relates to a relationship with a man. They were efficient in sending me matches each week and talking through how things were going as I navigated the online dating scene. And it was more fun with them by my side along the way!”
- -Lance, Charlotte, NC
“Laurie Berzack’s Carolinas Matchmaker service is terrific for anyone who is serious about finding a specific type of person. I hired her for her personal matchmaking service. I had several “must-have” qualities that I was looking for in a match, and she exceeded my expectations in finding a terrific match for me. You get what you pay for, and if you have high standards for finding a specific type of person, Laurie’s matchmaker service is money well-spent. I only wish I would have hired her years earlier!”
- -Kevin, Fort Mill, SC
“Laurie and her team are always pleasant, extremely helpful, and caring about your needs and preferences. From professional guidance and coaching on how to approach dating and relationships to incredible matching opportunities that are hand-picked just for you. Laurie has a gift of matchmaking that is truly remarkable, including quality clientele. I would definitely recommend her services.”
- -Samantha, Charlotte, NC
“Laurie is incredible. During the coaching I received from her, which was affordable and fully virtual, she not only helped me re-write my dating profile and choose pictures but gave me pointers on how to stay safe while dating online, which I appreciated. Once my profile went live, I was so overwhelmed by the amount of responses that Laurie went above and beyond and helped me weed through the mountains of emails, continuously reminding me of my value and never to settle. With her help during the Women’s Virtual Dating Bootcamp, I have finally found my person and I have never been this happy. I cannot recommend Laurie and Carolinas Matchmaker enough. Do not hesitate.”
- -Todd, Shelby, NC
“Laurie Carson Berzack you are a true connector. You find the beauty in every person. Thank you for reminding me never to settle and to hold out for my person.”
- -Logan, Davidson, NC
“Can’t believe I’ve finally ‘found love’, it’s the most incredible thing, and I have a lot to thank you for! Without your guidance, I might have ended up being one of the many who never finds love.”
- -Patrick, Rock Hill, SC
“Great experience with Laurie and her team! She was successful with my dates and I’m now married to one she introduced!”
- -Betty, Kannapolis, NC
“Laurie is very personable and is very helpful, especially with the online dating world. When I was looking for a second chance at love Laurie provided excellent advice to help me fulfill my dream. I’m ecstatic to report with Laurie’s direction I’m married to a man whom I can only have dreamed about and have such a loving partnership. Laurie is a gem!”
- -Amanda, Charlotte, NC
“I could not be happier and I could not have done it without y’all! I am so thankful for your encouragement. I don’t think I would have had the confidence to stick with online dating without your reassurance. Y’all did a great job screening potential matches ensuring that all of the boxes were checked while keeping me safe. I can not thank y’all enough!”
- -Molly, Asheville, NC
“I was a part of Laurie’s Women’s Virtual Dating Bootcamp, and it was an incredible experience! Laurie really thought of everything! She gave profile pointers, assisted with photo selection (and referred us to a wonderful local photographer), taught us how to stay safe online, and showed us how to set search parameters in order to find the perfect match. As a result of the Bootcamp, I have gotten online and am currently dating! I highly recommend this experience to anyone and good luck in your search. You can do this with Laurie’s help!”
- -Paul, Spartanburg, SC
“If ever there was a match for me, it is this woman. From my perspective, the date was a 10/10 and if she does not feel the same then the blame lies solely with me. It’s unusual to go on a date with someone I have so much in common with. Coming from someone who is typically ambivalent and non-committal, she is a grand slam home run.”
- -Andy, Hendersonville, NC
“Have you been looking for love in all the wrong places? Laurie is brilliant, honest, and compassionate. She is a dream to work with, and I assure you that you will enjoy the journey. If you are hoping to find love in the most positive way, if you’ve been absent from the dating scene and are looking for honest, up-to-the-minute advice, or are just trying to regain your footing in this strange new world, you need a coach and advocate and a positive, safe way to meet like-minded people, you have come to the right place. This company has years and years of experience and many imaginative modalities to facilitate dreamy social outcomes. Enjoy!”
- -Tom, Waxhaw, NC
“Laurie is amazing. She really takes time with people and treats them like a close friend! She helped me get to know myself better and helped me work through some of my dating habits that hadn’t worked for me in the past. I felt very safe and cared for by her and her team, which gave me so much confidence as I went out on more and more dates! I’m in a wonderful relationship now and I am so thankful!”
- -Tamra, North Charleston, SC
“All is very well. He and I are super happy and we’re just enjoying life! I am so appreciative of Carolinas Matchmaker for helping me navigate online dating. It is such an intimidating endeavor and I enjoyed having y’all coach me through it. I wanted to quit several times, but y’all were so encouraging! Thank you for everything!”
- -Meredith, Greensboro, NC
“I married the love of my life, and I never would have found him without the help of Carolinas Matchmaker! Laurie and her team of experts helped me with my photos, profile, and navigating through the intimidating & overwhelming maze of online dating. I never dreamed I could be this happy, and I owe it all to Carolinas Matchmaker. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for true love.”
- -Nate, Charlotte, NC
“I began working with Laurie and the Carolinas Matchmaker team earlier this year. After the standard meeting to understand my dating preferences, I began meeting some very nice women. Although the first couple of women were not a perfect fit, I was recently matched with an amazing and beautiful woman! I’m extremely happy to say that I cannot wait to see what the future holds for myself and this woman! #trusttheprocess”
- -Cameron, Winston Salem, NC
“I embraced the matchmaking process with an open mind and an open heart. Placing complete trust in Laurie was a leap of faith and I was blown away with the results. Her guidance, coaching skills, and relationship knowledge are priceless. I was introduced to several great women, but found true chemistry when I met “The One”. She and I connected on so many levels instantly. We knew within the first few dates that our mutual search for each other was over. I cannot remember being this happy in a relationship. Thank you so much, Laurie, for all you do!”
- -Marcus, Cary, NC
“What I appreciate the most about the service Laurie provides is that it’s not just about finding the perfect match, but also identifying and acknowledging what you need and deserve in a long-term happy relationship. It’s been as much of an experience about self-discovery as it has been about meeting the right person who makes you realize why it never worked out with anyone else who came before them.”
- -Roger, Chapel Hill, NC
“Laurie it’s like you have a sixth sense! You say what I am feeling or thinking before I am even able to articulate it! You really ‘get me!’”
- -Craig, Charleston, SC
“I wasn’t lucky—I was smart. I hired you guys!”
- -Paul, Columbia, SC
“I was not nervous going into the first date like I normally am because I knew Laurie had already screened her out and that she’d be a good fit for me! It was such a great and liberating feeling!”
- -Dawn, Denver, NC
“I so enjoyed my time with Laurie yesterday during the hour-long consultation. The guidance she gave me was perfect for what I needed to begin to shift and move forward. I already feel things shifting! She also held space for all the emotions that arose as we navigated what I wanted to manifest for myself. What a gift she is for those of us looking for a loving partner! Thank you, dear Laurie!”
- -Jamie, Greensboro, NC
“Laurie, I so enjoyed our time together yesterday during the consultation! I am feeling a shift already and I have begun listening to Attached on Audible. Woohoo!”

- – Lisa, Matthews, NC
“Laurie is so much better than your best friend at doling out dating advice. Her extensive experience in creating matches makes her an invaluable resource.

- -Mark, Asheville, NC

- -Tiffany, Raleigh, NC
“I realized that even though I have an online dating profile, I’ve never truly delved deep into who I am, what I have to offer in a relationship, and the qualities I seek in a partner. After speaking with you, thinking about it all, and taking the time to fill out the application, I feel I have a much better idea of who I am and what I can bring to a relationship.”
- -William, Charlotte, NC
“All I can say is thank you…and I’ll make sure to invite you to the wedding.”
- -Kevin, Charlotte, NC
“First of all, let me just say, you are incredibly good at what you do. From start to finish you and your team have made me comfortable and excited and helped to alleviate any stress that comes with your typical “blind date”. But above and beyond that, your genuine caring, your concern for your clients, your complete understanding of their wishes and needs is really what sets you and your organization apart from any other service, app or matchmaking site out there.”
- -Mary, Hilton Head, SC
“Laurie—your energy is infectious! Your advice you gave during the consultation was great, and I’m going to look at breathing new life into my dating strategy.”
- -Sarah, Concord, NC
“I want to take a moment to thank you for the work that you do and for who you are as a person. For me, your positive energy was the first thing that struck me. You were so easy to talk with and so encouraging in my search for Mr. Right online. I recall early conversations where you pushed me to stay open to all the possibilities. Instead of feeling like it was so hard to meet a man, you maintained that with an open heart and mind, the possibilities were limitless. I believe that change in my perception helped me significantly. My fiancé is someone that I could have easily overlooked and now he is the love of my life and brings me so much happiness. Thank you for believing in love and possibility!”
- -Matt, Pinehurst, NC
“Thanks for all you do! You always bring great insight after each date, you always know the right thing to say and how to say it, and I know without a doubt that you are putting 100% into serving me as a client. You are far more than a matchmaker—you have become a valued life coach!”
- -John, Raleigh, NC
“Thank you. May God bless you in your life—and in your work.”
