Morwenna & Martin
Bristol

Morwenna – "As soon as I saw Martin’s profile I was interested in learning more about him. We went through the guided communication which took us about a week, and then exchanged telephone numbers via email.
When I first heard his voice it was such a relief – he sounded sane, normal even and very sexy! We spoke for about 45 minutes and it was so easy and went really quickly. We decided to meet up a couple of days later in Dunster and we haven’t looked back since. When we hugged for the first time it felt so right, so familiar and so wonderful. Our first meeting was also when we had our first kiss – it was perfect.
I am so happy and feel so lucky. Martin is perfect for me and he tells me I’m perfect for him. We are getting married on 4th September 2010 and are so excited about spending the rest of our lives together and in time starting a family."

Susan & Peter
Castle Cary

Susan – "Peter was on my very first set of seven matches the day I signed up on eHarmony. I never would have thought it would be that easy to find the man of my dreams! After gaining the guts to start the guided communication with him that very day, everything fell into place and I never looked back. The more Peter and I corresponded the more we realised how well eHarmony paired us on so many levels of our personality, it was astounding! We get along so well, and there is never a dull moment in our relationship.
Peter proposed on March 18, 2008 in a magical garden called Stourhead in Somerset. Peter and I are both ecstatic about spending the rest of our lives together. "

Stefan & Sarah
Longfield

Stefan – "In June I was about ready to cancel my subscription when I received an icebreaker from Sarah in Washington. Eager as ever I put 100% effort in to getting to know Sarah and while communicating we found out that we had been matched perfectly. The more we communicated the more we found that there were more than just superficial ways in which we were matched.
In October I decided to put my money where my mouth was and meet Sarah in person. I knew from the first week or so of open communication that if there was one lady in the world I wanted to spend the rest of my life with, it was Sarah. I began planning an engagement in December, and that Christmas I proposed to Sarah and before I even had the chance to ask "if", she said yes."

Sue & Mike
Ilkley

"Two unusual people with deep faiths on a search for someone special - and eHarmony connected us! Mike was in Canada, Sue was in the UK. But beginning with emails, endless long Skype calls and finally visits to each others' countries to meet family and friends confirmed that "this was the way to walk” and we were married in February 2009 in the UK."

Traci & Andrew
Aylesbury

Traci – "One day I logged on and I had a request for communication from Andrew. I read his profile and was really impressed with it. We started communicating and I knew even before we completed our questions that this was someone I was very interested in.
After loads of emails, text messages, and hundreds of hours talking on the phone, I had planned a trip to Las Vegas with friends from work and Andrew met us there. He then traveled to my home in Hawaii to meet my children and friends. We got engaged while he was here. If it hadn't been for eHarmony Andrew and I would have never met. Now, I can't even imagine my life without him in it!!"

Faith & Al

Faith – "A few days into my membership, a profile showed up that immediately riveted my attention. I looked at his picture and liked what I saw. In the past, I was always cautious and held my cards fairly close to my chest as I screened and tested and observed. When Al and I met, it became immediately clear to me that this was the man that I was waiting for. So, thus was birthed the relationship I’ve waited for all my life. I had always heard people say, “I can’t explain it. I just knew.” And they’ve been happily married for years.
I never understood that until now because I, too, can say I just know and it’s been worth the wait."

Anna & Andrew
Portsmouth

Anna – "During July 2008 Andrew took me to Beaulieu House, the place where we first met, and as we were walking in the rose garden he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. It didn't take me long to say yes! Our wedding was on the 25th October 2008, we are so thankful for the way that we met and all that that has meant to us. We have something that is so solid and stable, we really couldn't ask for more."

Richard & Jamie
Norfolk

Richard – "If 15 months ago someone had told me that I would meet my soul mate, wife, best friend and lover on eHarmony I would have laughed, but that is exactly what has happened.
I lived in Norfolk in the UK and Jamie in California, 5400 miles apart. After some great weekends in Ireland and a spell in England, hundreds of emails, hours talking on the phone and the internet, I went over to CA for a few months. We married on August the 1st and we are now living in the UK. Joining eHarmony was the best move I have ever made and I would never have met Jamie if I hadn’t. Now I cannot imagine my life without her."

John & Karen
Windsor

Karen – "While in Telluride, on a beautiful day with clear blue skies, aspen trees in gorgeous golden colour and snow on the ground...suddenly John was down on one knee - first with a jokey huge fake diamond ring and then with the stunning ring he had helped design and had made for me - it was wonderful. We planned our unique wedding for 9th May 2008 in Windsor with friends and family from around the world.
We have recommended eHarmony to so many people, who usually get a tear in their eye or a lump in their throat, and many of them have found love this way. I don't know of a better way to really find out who someone is...quickly."

Eva & Stuart
St.Neots

Eva – "In March 2007 I gave up my job to move down with Stuart and I have never looked back since. During that year we talked about marriage and had a fantastic time being together. On December 17, 2007 he asked me to marry him and I said yes. On March 22nd 2008 we got married at Somerton House Hotel, Lockerbie, Scotland.

Wow we are so happy. If only we had met earlier. So thanks again eHarmony. Matches really do come true."

Janelle & Matthew
Oxford

Janelle – "After dinner and a show in London on New Year's Eve he dropped to one knee with fireworks in the background and asked me to marry him. I moved to Oxford and we are so excited about spending the rest of our lives together. This worked out so much better than I could have ever imagined and I am telling everyone I know to sign up!"

Dipak & Anesia
Suffolk

"Every moment we have together reinforces our certainty that we are really right for each other. We are thrilled every day just getting to know each other and laughing together, because being married to the RIGHT person is just plain FUN. We keep dreaming together, and we are sure that every time a dream comes true, it’s because we made it happen as a couple. Keep up the good work, eHarmony!"

Sarah & Ryan
Sheffield

"I turned on "other countries" and we were matched within the day. We both were a bit wary at first, but we went through the guided communication blazingly fast and found kindred hearts in each other's words. Before I knew it, I was on my way to a whirlwind weekend in the UK, and from the first time we saw each other, it really was like we were meant to be with each other. And so, almost one year to the date from when we were introduced we found ourselves again back in Stratford, engaged. Three months later, on New Year's Eve, we married in San Francisco and had at truly amazing and fun wedding weekend with memories and a wedding album completely different from any other wedding we've ever been to!"

Yvonne & Steven

Yvonne – "The first night we met was literally like a dream. A glass of wine turned into a dinner that lasted late into the evening. We never stopped talking and smiling, and I am certain that by the end of that first evening we were finishing each other's sentences.
Our values and views are essentially the same, our communication styles are compatible, and each of our general outlooks on life is mirrored in the other.
As the months have passed, the love Steven and I feel for one another has grown and deepened in ways that neither of us could have imagined. We each know, without a doubt, that we’ve met our soul mate, thus making the long road each of has traveled to get here well worth the time and effort it took to reach this point."

Patrick & Joy
Cambridge

"I got down on one knee and proposed and she delightfully accepted. We got married in the US in April '07 and then had blessing ceremony in the UK a month later. Now it has been a year and our lives our much richer, fuller and happier and I feel blessed every day. So thanks eHarmony, as really I wasn't expecting much, and yet I got more than I wished for."

Subita & Sudeep
London

"It was just like in all the ads. By the time we met in person, about four months after we were "matched", we were already good friends. When we met, there was an instant spark - we were so alike in so many important ways and yet we really balanced each other in other areas. I was really sceptical of using the internet to meet someone but I am so glad that I tried eHarmony because so much thought has gone into the science of matching people on the site, and it really paid off for us."

Graham & Marsha
Northamptonshire

"The moment I met Graham I knew that I would spend the rest of my life with him! It was simply a match made in heaven!!! Our first date was a lovely French dinner in London. I had never been involved in a serious relationship and my family and friends thought the man I was looking for simply did not exist ... well, he did and I finally found him! Thank you, eHarmony, for bringing us together!!!!"
