About the bureau
A matchmaking bureau. We meet every family we work with.
About
About Cassia
Cassia was started in a two-room office with a ledger, a telephone and a card index. The ledger is a database now and the card index is a register, but nothing else about the method has changed: somebody meets the family, somebody meets the candidate, and somebody forms a view. We have watched a great many websites arrive promising to do this faster. What they do faster is show you people. Showing you people was never the hard part. The hard part is knowing which two families should sit in a room together, and that has never been done well by a search box. We take a limited number of registrations because a matchmaker who is carrying two hundred files is not a matchmaker, they are a mailing list. If we do not think we can help you, we will say so at the consultation and there will be nothing to pay.

The team
Our matchmakers
One of them will handle your file from the first conversation to the last introduction.

Handles most of our registrations in the north. Known for asking the question a family has been avoiding, in the first ten minutes, and for being right about it.
Mr. Ramesh

Does the document checks and most of the difficult conversations. Trained as a lawyer, which shows in how carefully he reads a certificate.

Works with our second-marriage register and with families whose candidate is abroad. Speaks four languages and uses all of them in a week.
Ms. Farida

Trust
How we verify, and what we never publish
Full particulars of a candidate on our register are never published on this website and are never shared in bulk. What appears here is a summary.
Every candidate has been met
In person, by one of our matchmakers, before they appear on our register. There are no profiles here that arrived through a form.
Documents are checked
Identity, highest qualification, employment and marital status. Checked against originals, recorded, and re-checked at renewal.
Full particulars are never published
What is on this website is a summary. Family details, contact details and photographs are shared with an enrolled family, one proposal at a time, with the candidate’s consent.
Nothing is passed on
We do not share our register with other bureaus, agents or portals, and we never have.
You can be withdrawn in an hour
A telephone call is enough. A withdrawn candidate is removed from the register and from every open proposal the same day.
