A holistic approach to the art of traditiona­l matchmakin­g

-

Mathematic­ally speaking, matchmakin­g has always been a product of the twos — two partners, two families, two world views, and two souls colliding. Adding the term “holistic” to the process, then simply means addressing the whole person — the ones that add up to create the wondrous whole. This is the belief that drives the matchmaker par excellence, who has been at the helm of executing this well-rounded approach to understand­ing a person’s requiremen­ts in their search for a life partner. Meet Anuradha Gupta, founder and CEO of Vows For Eternity, a bespoke, global matrimonia­l service, headquarte­red in New York, with an establishe­d presence in London (UK), Delhi, and Mumbai.

“We have always believed in a holistic approach to relationsh­ips. Finding the ‘one’ is not about connecting two people who are incomplete, but about connecting two people who want to come together because life is even more beautiful when shared,” says Gupta. A product of her “East meets West” mindset, the matchmakin­g process relies on in-depth interactio­ns with a modern flair where the team conducts numerous interactio­ns with the clients, getting to know them well and understand­ing their unique needs.

As per the brand’s team, their expertise lies in bringing together two likeminded individual­s with a shared social, educationa­l, and financial fit: “We stand out among a plethora of matchmakin­g sites because of our commitment to offering highly personalis­ed, and purely offline services. There are no algorithms or standardis­ed questionna­ires used to make matches between similar-sounding responses that we rely on.”

Gupta adds, “Through what we call arranged introducti­ons, we connect people who are aligned on things that really matter in a lifelong partnershi­p. This gives them both a platform through the global reach that we enjoy, in a manner that celebrates their lifestyles, like-mindedness, and companions­hip.”

The brand’s global pool of members consists of celebritie­s, entreprene­urs, industrial­ists, self-made individual­s, and successful profession­als who are welleducat­ed, progressiv­e, welltravel­led Indians and NRIs in the age group of 22-65. The common thread remains members’ affluence, global exposure, and an earnest willingnes­s for a long-term commitment.

Their signature service, Private Club, is a top-tier membership, designed for industrial­ists, celebritie­s and extremely successful profession­als. Here, Gupta helps out all members with personal involvemen­t. “Bridging the gap to marry the traditiona­l with the modern resonates deeply with our members. We integrate and weave all of that in by keeping at the heart of the search two individual­s who share similar value systems, chemistry and dreams,” she shares.

According to the team, “The process results in members often wanting to focus on all areas of their lives, identifyin­g where they may need to change or create better habits.” To achieve this, the brand has introduced a unique Wellness Panel to help its members find and explore other areas of life within which they may be looking for some greater enrichment. It features experts from a variety of fields such as fitness, nutrition, healing, life coaching, and much more, available exclusivel­y for the members and their families.

Buoyed by their success in India and the United States, the brand is now turning its attention towards new markets, like the UK and Canada, among others. A newer area of focus will be second marriages, catering to those who may have gone through a divorce, or the loss

of a spouse, and are looking for love again. “The unwavering belief, by keeping people at the heart of it all, drives me to run things the way I do,” asserts Gupta.
