I have been a member for over 10 years. I had a break of four years and when that relationship broke up I went back. I am so glad I did. I was welcomed back with open arms, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. I decided to go to the main functions regularly and ended up meeting some amazing people and have become friends with both men and women. The way it is set up is so clever. You get a three course dinner, which after each course the men change table so you get to have a different man both sides of you with each course. It really is so much fun. You even have a dance card to fill out. It just works so well. You do have to have the right attitude, attending these events. I feel that you have to go in very open minded and just relax and enjoy yourself. Make an effort to meet and talk to people, I really enjoy meeting people, and you will find that it will be the best night out you will ever have. There are not many places you can go to where you can get dressed up, have a great meal, meet some great people and then to top the night off, my favorite part, the dance floor is open and you dance the night away. These events are just such fun, and I enjoy them very much. I must admit I am hooked on these events and can not wait for them to come back after the lock down. I miss them so much

I have been a member of across the room for many years. How I come to know about it was through my x husband who recommended them to me after meeting his now wife through the organisation. It was quite daunting to go to my first dinner dance but I liked the fact that you were in a safe environment and on arrival I was introduced by the orgainsors to other ladies which made me feel as if I wasn't on my own. I have always enjoyed socialising with people but it's one thing doing this at work and another when your in a environment which is a social scene. However ATR had set out the tables so everyone had an introduction card showing the name of the people sitting round me, it gave me reasurane. I have gained many good friends, male and female through across the room and it was there that I met my fiance. We were friends to start, having met in several of their locations and because we didn't live too far from one another would often share lifts rather than stay at the venue. I honestly don't think I would have found my wonderful fiance if I hadn't joined ATR and I can't thank them enough for that. I always recommend Across the room to people but you have to be part of it to find someone and ATR gives you an opportunity, it's down to you to get yourself out there to find someone special. I will be pleased when they reopen again.

19/2/16 was an exciting, glamourous night. Thus, a very warmth, friendly and exotic atmosphere setting. The venue was grand and iconic. Joy and happiness enriches and overwhelmed you on being spellbounded by all those greetings that carry cheerful smiles of all most enchanting, beautiful and adorable faces of classic, gorgeous and irresistible ladies hmmnnn...it was a night the heavens descended with 'angels from above'. The feeling of vibrancy in the air greeted you as you are entreated to a warmth reception that makes you feel so special. Thus, one cannot help but feeling so intoxicated with all those romantic cuddles and enchanted kisses planted on your side cheeks by adorable ladies, leaving a remarkable red imprint of kisses as gesture of greetings. Hhmmnn...one feels roused, awakened and above all full of inspirations as you ended up loosing yourself so completely. Thus, the eyes of all the team of overseers entreated you not to be by yourself alone. You were always made to get involved and constantly made into immediate introductions to groups of beautiful ladies that excited you with their romantic charms. Where you were eye to eye mirrored into your souls until you are sweetened and carried away with deep conversations that are smoothened with glasses of champagne inherent with those electricities that sparks great intimacy and good connections. Yes, men to ladies wise. However, one cannot help but over hearing those enchanting voices, talks and lofty conversations over across the tables by men and women of romantic alike. Suggesting tones and romantic vibes that pairs ladies together with their men angularly positioned to their rights. Love and romance was the feeling in the air over a 3 course meal at your disposal. Smiles, laughter and being amused were not without their jesting. Music could not have had its name fueled with all activities that spices love,romance and excitements without the DJ. Seeing him evoked those music that incited pair of two romantic bodies of dances interlocking together in romantic blues until a meditative pose suggested a male and female intertwined together and feeling the vibrancy of being roused into romantic overindulgence. Hhmmnn....it was night that the Heaven descended on earth 'with joy over the moon'. By Abbe Briggs.
