The difference
You have built a life most people only dream of. You know what you bring to a relationship — and what you are looking for.
Some evenings are quieter than they should be. Some successes land without anyone to tell. You just haven’t found them yet.
That is exactly why Lyons Elite exists. One matchmaker. A limited number of clients. Every introduction made with the care and discretion this deserves.
We learn who you are — and then we go find them.

The founder
Founder & Chief Executive
Emily spent a decade building one of the world’s most trusted luxury brand networks — working with Mercedes-Benz, Louis Vuitton, and the most demanding clients in the world.
Her elite clients did not ask her to start a matchmaking firm. They just kept asking her to find them someone. Eventually she stopped saying no.
Since founding Lyons Elite in 2014, Emily has become a trusted name in private matchmaking for executives, founders, and influential individuals across North America and Europe.

By application only
A private search, designed around one person: you.

Twelve years of matchmaking, and the endings were visible at the beginning almost every time. This is how to read them.

Your list describes the person you would choose from a photograph. Research and experience point somewhere else.

We kept hearing there was nowhere left to meet anyone. So we designed an evening where real connection could happen.
