In an industry that was speeding things up and in my opinion, creating a deeper divide between people, I created The Dinner Party as a counterweight, a solution to slow things down, so that people could be provided with the opportunity to meet complementary people, in an enjoyable environment to truly connect, and enjoy the process.&#8221;<\/p><h4><b>The mission of the company is to create world love domination, <\/b><b>one dinner party at a time.<\/b><\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ed4ce1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0ed4ce1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"105\" src=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Screen-Shot-2018-01-31-at-2.59.26-PM-1024x168.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-75121\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Screen-Shot-2018-01-31-at-2.59.26-PM-1024x168.png 1024w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Screen-Shot-2018-01-31-at-2.59.26-PM-300x49.png 300w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Screen-Shot-2018-01-31-at-2.59.26-PM-768x126.png 768w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Screen-Shot-2018-01-31-at-2.59.26-PM-100x16.png 100w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Screen-Shot-2018-01-31-at-2.59.26-PM-360x59.png 360w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Screen-Shot-2018-01-31-at-2.59.26-PM.png 1102w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36f10e8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"36f10e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4><b>How is The Dinner Party creating an impact?<\/b><\/h4><p>It&#8217;s helping people enjoy their romantic lives again.
