The Short Version: Enlist in UniformDating.com to surround yourself with upstanding singles who value service in the military, law enforcement, and community. With the motto “everyone needs a hero,” this niche dating site cultivates a unique user base of 2.2 million singles, including military personnel, doctors, nurses, firefighters, police officers, and anyone who gets dressed to the nines for work. The site’s blog content facilitates dates and relationships by offering helpful tips and funny icebreakers that cater to specific professions. With a focus on hooking up heroes, UniformDating.com brings together men and women in uniform as well as those who admire them.

Katherine Tilbrook joined UniformDating.com because she was ready for a commitment, and she had her sights set on a man in uniform. When she met Army Captain Austin Hind, their initial nervousness soon blossomed into love.

“It wasn’t quite love at first sight — more fear, we think,” Katherine remembered.

Katherine and Austin got married in Quebec’s ice hotel after meeting on UniformDating.com.

One December, the couple toured the World’s Biggest TeePee in Medicine Hat, Canada. It was a frigid 18 degrees outside, but Austin’s palms were clammy. With an anxious smile, he came to a halt at the center of the teepee.

Snowflakes shone like stars in Kate’s dark hair as Austin got down on one knee. He’d chosen to propose in the snow because their first date had been a walk through the snow. Their wedding, too, adopted a winter wonderland theme.

The intimate ceremony (attended by just seven people, including Kate and Austin) took place at the Hotel de Glace — known as Quebec’s ice hotel. It was minus 5 degrees that afternoon, but the bride and groom hardly felt the cold, warmed as they were by the love they shared.

Katherine and Austin’s fairytale romance was made possible because of a truly unique niche dating site.

In the U.K., UniformDating.com helps men and women in uniform (and their admirers) find romance online. The site’s parent company, NSI Holdings, is well known for brands such as Cupid.com and MatureDating.com.

Founded in 2004, UniformDating.com offers support and networking to people who commit their lives to doing good works in the community or the military. From doctors to U.S. naval officers, the site has over 2.2 million registered users  and nearly 130,000 Facebook fans mingling freely online.

The site welcomes singles of all stripes: whether you don a uniform yourself or simply find men/women in uniforms attractive.

“There are a lot of people who have specific professions that have a great impact on their personal lives,” Tatiana Mikhalchuk, PR Manager, told us. “These people have unique missions in their lives, and we understand that such people need and deserve someone who understands what they do — and what they do it for.”

The site’s motto is “Everyone needs a hero,” and the team’s mission is to bring together everyday heroes (firefighters, pilots, nurses, doctors, etc.) in an open online forum.

On the site, 52% of members are women, and 48% are men. The types of careers these men and women have differ on average. Among women, the most common profession is doctor at 33%; while among men the most common profession is army man at 28%. Police officers rank in the top three professions for both genders.
