Dating isn’t easy, 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.
Of all these overused icons, heart logos have been the busiest. Out of every ten dating logos you see around you, 7 use the heart icon.
If you are anything like us and clichéd designs are one of your pet peeves, we welcome you to our blog today. In today’s 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.
So, the preamble done, let’s start with the good stuff.
Elevate the romance in your dating logo by incorporating dreamlike elements. Flat colors in pastel and romantic shades with a lot of darker backgrounds.

While we can see the general shape of the heart icon contained in this logo, the beautifully designed small case ‘w’ engages the eye and emerges as the main symbol.

Hearts or interconnected hands are the only icons that say ‘love’ and ‘connection’. You can use people icons in creative ways to make your dating logo look even more interesting.

The brand name is a wordplay and sounds like an interesting platform to try out when you want to meet new people.

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.

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 in people.
Two Connected Pieces of a Jigsaw Puzzle
If you run a matchmaking agency, using a wedding ring logo is the quickest way to communicate your business to the audience. Don’t pay attention to the jeweled hearts on top – you can always swap them for something else.
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.
Bubbles with an Envelope Logo
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

As we said, do not make things too obvious. Keep things looking professional yet creative with abstract images and subtle design cues.

Dating is where being truly ‘you’ 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.

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’t let you miss the message and uses a flame to emphasize the meaning.

Keep the icons in your dating logo connected and squishy. Too much distance is bad for both dating and design.
