Founded by Daniella Guimaraes

Velvet Ties started with a simple belief: the best connections don't happen by accident. They're curated. Daniella built Velvet Ties as a luxury lifestyle and connections firm — part matchmaker, part community architect, part brand strategist. What started as curated events in New York and Miami grew into a global operation spanning Tuscany, St. Tropez, Ibiza, Brazil, and Croatia.

AI-Powered, Human-Led

Velvet Ties is one of the first matchmaking and community operations to run on AI infrastructure. We use advanced tools to cross-reference compatibility data, optimize introductions, and screen every member through our proprietary verification platform — Bad Actor Identifier (BAI). The result: precision that traditional matchmakers can't match, backed by a human who actually cares about the outcome.
