Dating isn\u2019t easy<\/a>, but digesting stereotyped dating logo designs is even harder. Every time you go on the internet to look for some serious dating design inspo, you are inundated with a storm of heart logos, hand-holding logos, dove logos, and other superficial visual cues about romantic love.<\/p>\n

Of all these overused icons, heart logos have been the busiest. Out of every ten dating logos<\/a> you see around you, 7 use the heart icon.<\/p>\n

If you are anything like us and clich\u00e9d designs are one of your pet peeves, we welcome you to our blog today. In today\u2019s post, we are talking about dating logos that are not hearts. Disclaimer: there may be a hint of the primary cardiovascular organ in this list but it is subtle enough not to become an annoyance.<\/p>\n

\n Create Dating Logos<\/a><\/div>\n

So, the preamble done, let\u2019s start with the good stuff.<\/p>\n

1. Keep It Dreamlike<\/h2>\n

Elevate the romance in your dating logo by incorporating dreamlike elements. Flat colors in pastel and romantic shades with a lot of darker backgrounds.<\/p>\n

2. Just A Hint<\/h2>\n

While we can see the general shape of the heart icon contained in this logo, the beautifully designed small case \u2018w\u2019 engages the eye and emerges as the main symbol.<\/p>\n

3. An Icon Of People<\/h2>\n

Hearts or interconnected hands are the only icons that say \u2018love\u2019 and \u2018connection\u2019. You can use people icons in creative ways to make your dating logo look even more interesting.<\/p>\n

4. Puns And Pairing<\/h2>\n

The brand name is a wordplay and sounds like an interesting platform to try out when you want to meet new people.<\/p>\n

5. Friend Of A Friend<\/h2>\n

Wary of strangers? Enlist your friends to help you out when you are in a dating rut. The brand design is simple, and while the font choice could be better, the creative intent is commendable.<\/p>\n

6. Like The Pieces Of A Puzzle<\/h2>\n

Finding someone who you can fit as well as two pieces of a puzzle together is a dream come true. Use this dating logo to ignite hope<\/a> in people.<\/p>\n

7. Wedding Ring For Your Matchmaking Logo<\/h2>\n

If you run a matchmaking agency, using a wedding ring logo is the quickest way to communicate your business to the audience. Don\u2019t pay attention to the jeweled hearts on top \u2013 you can always swap them for something else.<\/p>\n

8. A Perfumed Envelope<\/h2>\n

Before there was speed dating, there were the romance of letters and the sweet agony of the wait. Ok, fine, the waiting may not have been as sweet but this logo of perfume vapors coming out of it definitely is.<\/p>\n

\nBubbles with an Envelope Logo<\/a><\/p>\n

9. An Attractive Shape<\/h2>\n

The human brain loves symmetry and uniformity. Circle and oval are some of the most popular geometric shapes found in nature and loved by the brain. Use one in your logo to benefit from this favoritism.<\/p>\n

10.\tPlan For The Courtship<\/h2>\n

Bring the courtship back in style by encouraging your users to plan creative dates. This app uses a heart logo to create the letter P and we love the twist.<\/p>\n

11.\tAdd Details<\/h2>\n

Who said your dating logo needs to be simple? No, we left the simple back in 2012. This is the time to add details and make your logo speak for itself.<\/p>\n

12.\tDon\u2019t Make It Obvious<\/h2>\n

Dating, as well as brand identity design, is a lot about how much you communicate and when. So, keep things a little abstract and make people work to look for them.<\/p>\n

13.\tWay To The Heart<\/h2>\n

This is one of those logos that take the heart and use pieces of it to create something entirely unique. Here, the connection, location, and love are all included in the Trill logo in a unique and appealing way.<\/p>\n

\"Dating

14.\tTwist The Heart<\/h2>\n

The logo literally twists and separates the details of a heart design to create two interconnected teardrop shapes. Goes to show that even if you want to use the heart, there are more than one ways to go about it.<\/p>\n

\"Dating

15.\tA Speed Dating Logo<\/h2>\n

The logo uses shades and hues of fire to add urgency to the design. The chat logo is unmistakable and the added sheen elevates the look further.<\/p>\n

\"Dating

16.\tA Matchmaking Logo<\/h2>\n

Make your audience\u2019s heart racing with this matchmaking logo that uses vertical lines to showcase the beating heart imagery.<\/p>\n

17.\tAn Abstract Shape<\/h2>\n

As we said, do not make things too obvious. Keep things looking professional yet creative with abstract images and subtle design cues.<\/p>\n

\"Dating

18.\tFor An Exclusive Feel<\/h2>\n

Dating is where being truly \u2018you\u2019 gets you the prize. Use design details in your logo that speak for an exclusive clientele to narrow the pool already. Your users are going to thank you.<\/p>\n

\"Dating
\nImage Source: Dribbble<\/a><\/p>\n

19.\tA New Flame<\/h2>\n

Add a pop of color or a bit of flame to your logo to heat things up. While this brand name is a pun itself, it doesn\u2019t let you miss the message and uses a flame to emphasize the meaning.<\/p>\n

\"Dating

20.\tConnection Is Everything<\/h2>\n

Keep the icons in your dating logo connected and squishy. Too much distance is bad for both dating and design.<\/p>\n
