If showing up always feels harder than it should – this is for you.
Before the Brunch™ helps you go from “maybe I’ll go” to “I’ll see you there”—without overthinking the whole thing.
YOU FOUND OUR SQUAD.
Now, let’s find your people.
The kind who don’t flake.
The kind who plan the second hangout before the first one’s over.
Before the Brunch ™ takes the pressure off, so showing up actually feels exciting again.
You walk in solo—and leave with someone texting, “same time next weekend?”
Making new friends shouldn’t feel like a second full-time job.
With plans that fall apart by Thursday—even when everyone swore they were “so down.”
Or worse: group chats full of memes… but no actual plans.
Or even worse: another night of sharing your life story over $18 cocktails, only for that to be the last time you ever talk.
You’ve been doing your part. We’re here to make the rest of it easier.
If any of these sound familiar…
“I always miss the signup links.”
“I want to go, but walking in alone feels impossible.”
“I keep seeing the photos after and wishing I’d gone.”
Before the Brunch™ was built for you.
It’s your shortcut to plans that actually happen and people who actually show up.
Your go-to space for staying in the know and locking in your plans.
Once you’ve seen it, you’ll wonder how you ever did friendship without it.

Smart Reminders
The updates that hit right before you were about to double check the details. A nudge just as you’re thinking, “Wait… what time is that again?”
Optional, but game-changing:
Pre-Event Glowup (Premium Feature)
Get the inside scoop on who’s going and start convos early – even before you’ve booked your tickets. So when you walk in, it feels like you already know half the room.
A little preview of your new favorite corner of the internet:
YOU’LL COME FOR THE BRUNCH AND LEAVE WITH YOUR NEW CREW.
Before the Brunch™ turns “maybe I’ll go” into “why didn’t I do this sooner?”
You’ll be greeted by name.
You’ll already have plans for next weekend.
And you’ll be in a room full of women who get it and will get you.
This is the version of NYC you were hoping for when you moved here.
Less aimless scrolling, more weekends that actually mean something.
And it all started because you said yes once.
Join the women who already know what they’re doing this weekend and who they’re doing it with.
Come solo. Leave connected.
You Might Be Wondering…
-
Nope. Every NYC Brunch Squad ® member gets free access to Before the Brunch™—and it’s the only way to RSVP for our events going forward.
If you want to see who’s going and start connecting before tickets even open, the optional premium features are under $10/month. -
Everything you need to go from “I kind of want to go” to “I’m so glad I did.”
Event calendar, one-click RSVPs, who’s going, and reminders that hit right when you need them.
It’s all in one place—and built to make showing up feel easy. And, if you want to connect before you commit, that’s what the premium upgrade is for. -
Not if you bookmark the page. Before the Brunch™ is clean, simple, and made to help you actually show up—not dig through group chats or scroll past another expired story. Everything you need is in one place, right when you need it.
-
Not even a little. Pretty much everyone comes solo—that’s literally who this was built for. You’ll get to see who else is going, and we match you at the event with people you’re likely to click with. Plus, every event comes with its own group chat—so the connections don’t end when the event does.
If you want to break the ice before you even book your ticket, premium features make that easy too! Showing up solo doesn’t mean showing up alone.
-
Totally normal. That’s why every event has ambassadors ready to greet you and make introductions as soon as you arrive. Plus our seating charts are designed to pair you with people you're likely to click with.
If you want a little extra support, premium features let you chat with other members who are also thinking about going (before you even book!) so you can show up feeling a little more sure, and a lot less alone.
-
If knowing who’s going, starting a convo early, or walking in already feeling connected is the extra support you need to feel good getting in the room—it’s there for you.
You can even test it for a day. There’s no pressure to commit until you’re sure it will make showing up feel easier.
-
No app to download—Before the Brunch™ is totally web-based.
You will need to log in (because we care who’s walking in, and we know you do too).
Just bookmark it so you can stay on top of what’s happening and hop in anytime.
-
NYC Brunch Squad® is the community you’re part of.
Before the Brunch™ is the private platform where you see what’s coming up, RSVP, and connect with the women going—it’s how you’ll join our events moving forward.
So one’s the invite. The other is how you say yes.
-
You do. Before the Brunch™ is now how we handle all event RSVPs—and it’s how we get to know you a little better, so we can help connect you with the kinds of women you actually want to meet.
It only takes a few minutes to set up!
-
We’ll never discourage you from bringing a friend—but it’s always worth checking in with yourself: Will I still be open to meeting new people if I show up with someone I already know?
If she wants to join, she’ll need to create her own account and RSVP for the event too.
If you want to sit together, please drop us a note so we can update the seating chart.
