Known as the “Love Agents of Hollywood,” this dynamic duo has built a boutique matchmaking service that blends industry instincts with heart-centered strategy — and a track record of real-life happily-ever-afters.Jaydi, a TV writer whose credits include Family Guy, Salem, and Good Times, first launched LJMatchmaking in 2014 after spotting a major plot hole in L.A.’s dating scene: there was no go-to place for quality singles looking for something real. Her own matchmaking journey even led her to her husband, Dave — though, in true rom-com fashion, she had to “get high on her own supply” and ask him out herself.Lauren, a former TV development executive and producer (Monica The Medium, Checked Inn), has been matchmaking since her early days as an assistant at WME, where she pitched singles the way others pitched scripts. Now a talent manager at Mortar Media, she still channels her gift for spotting chemistry — both on and off screen. Fun fact: she even got engaged on a Comedy Central show (with a little help from comedian Theo Von).Together, Lauren and Jaydi pair intuition with spreadsheets, wish lists with gut instincts, and typecasts with real-life surprises — all while helping their clients cast for something deeper: lasting love.Resources: LJ Matchmaking WebsiteLJ Matchmaking InstagramJaydi Samuels Kuba IMDBLauren Rosenberg IMDBHollywoodWEST (Hollywood Women Executives Stronger Together)────────────────────────────Stay Tuned with Tipsy Casting on IGWatch the Tipsy Casting YouTube ChannelFollow Jessica & Follow Jenn Learn More About Jess & Jenn's Casting
