[September 15th, 2025 ] After Hello, a national matchmaking and date coaching company, has declared Sunday, December 7, 2025 as the first-ever National Cuffing Day. The new cultural holiday is designed to transform the casual idea of “cuffing season” into a meaningful movement that celebrates intentional love, romantic partnership, and human connection.
“Cuffing Day is not about cuffing out of convenience,” said Ann Parnes, co-founder of After Hello. “It’s about honoring the universal desire for love, creating space for intentional relationships, and reminding people that life is richer, healthier, and more meaningful when shared with the right partner.”
“Singles today are telling us they want more than swipes and situationships,” added Maria Murray, co-founder of After Hello. “Cuffing Day is our way of celebrating love as something worth investing in, and creating a cultural moment where lasting connection is both honored and actively pursued.”
The launch comes at a pivotal cultural moment:
Research confirms why this matters. The Harvard Study of Adult Development, the longest-running study of human happiness, found that strong relationships are the single most important predictor of long-term well-being.
