Latest news…

It has been awhile since I’ve written a post on here, but to keep a long story short, making this dream happen will take time.

The film option we signed for AreYouMyWife is in early stages, as well as a whole bunch of other stuff for AreYouMyPartner, but the team we’re working has told me that to get this right, and do it properly, will take time – months if not years.

So until there is news, this post will have to serve as a placeholder. There are many of us who have invested much of ourselves into making AreYouMyPartner happen, and now that the right team are behind the project, it’s like any relationship: it needs time to form a proper foundation to grow huge.

And we believe that is worth waiting for…

Thai-spiration

CeCe and I recently returned to Thailand, which was the scene of our second date in the AreYouMyWife adventure. We both needed to take a break from London life, weather and work to reflect on a number of things, including the direction we take with this project.

It was nice to get away and just sit still on a beach away from the internet, and you can see some of the scenes we enjoyed below. But alas the holiday ended, and we’re back in London and back to work. We have some more meetings with project sponsors in the weeks to come, and then we should be able to make an announcement pending the outcome of those meetings.

More soon, meantime enjoy the views:

A complete change in direction

You may have noticed that, as of today, this website has changed…

And that’s because – as of today – we’re postponing activity that involves looking for sponsors, investors or donations to raise £48,000 by Valentine’s day 2010 to fund a new dating site. We’re now gearing up to go down a completely new path…

We had a meeting last week with the team who have optioned the film and TV rights for AreYouMyWife, and they have proposed a whole new concept that will take AreYouMyPartner in exciting new directions to achieve our goal: pass the torch and create a whole new dating experience.

There are a few more creative and strategy meetings to be had in the coming weeks as we set up the new venture, and as soon as there is news, I’ll make the announcement on this site.

Exciting times ahead….

A deal just signed, now a break

Some happy news: The AreYouMyWife story has just been optioned to be shopped around as a feature film! The ink just dried on the agreement, so we’ll see if in the next few years this pans out into a full blown film or TV series – very exciting end to 2009, and a great start for this project!

On the AreYouMyPartner front, this past month has seen some great meetings and interest from potential investors, with some follow-up (as well as new) meetings lined up in early 2010. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has given us positive vibes since we launched this site in November, and we look forward to the new year to bring this project home!

Love from the AreYouMyPartner team!
