Today we’d like to introduce you to Cristina Morara.
Cristina, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
It all started in a sexy production studio in Milan. I was casting for a commercial and was surrounded by handsome Italian men in Armani suits. In walks, George Clooney (the Italian version) and I knew I met my future husband. He didn’t get the part, but he got the girl. We moved to the States and opened up a romantic wine bar. Our upscale clientele began ordering off the menu; ‘Does your husband have any single friends?’ or ‘I’m bringing in someone special tonight ~ pour the Brunello if you think she’s a keeper or gives her the Chianti if she’s not’. Requests became intimate, so we leaned in and wanted to help. That’s how we came up with the idea for Stellar Hitch Private Matchmaking. We introduce high-quality people to each other while giving high-level insight on making the best first impression.
After almost 15 years in business, Stellar Hitch remains a boutique-by-design company. We work exclusively with HNW men that are serious about meeting The One but have very limited access to the right types. My days are spent scouting, vetting and interviewing beautiful, one-of-a-kind women. My husband, Andrea is the Courting Coach ~ he works with men and women to uplevel their dating game and get into healthy relationships.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It’s been such a beautiful learning experience. Every twist and turn has been quite useful and allowed us to hone in on who we are. Being a boutique service, we choose our clients carefully, especially since we prefer to work with a limited number of people per quarter to give the highest level of service. This has been our best decision.
One of the ‘gifts’ of Covid has been our seamless expansion. We are bi-coastal between California and Florida with an office in Milan and satellite offices in New York and London. There is a greater acceptance now that people can work from anywhere.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
My job title should be ‘treasure huntress’ because I spend my days searching for rare jewels! I introduce amazing men to one-of-a-kind women for lasting relationships. There are so many great women in the world, and then there are the ‘unicorns’ ~ the ones that are beautiful on the inside and out, kind, grounded and secure… and ready.! That’s the most important aspect. Someone could be amazing but if they’re really not ready to be in a relationship, it’s just a waste of time for everyone. This is where I put my skills to the test; I’m the eyes and ears for my clients — they trust me — so it’s up to me to ask the important questions before there’s an introduction. One of my clients calls me his personal ‘consigliere’ – a nod to my Sicilian roots but he also knows that I’ll distinguish the Ms. Rights from the Ms. Right Now’s for him.
I’m definitely most proud of the high-quality women I represent; knowing where to look, how to look and keeping my resources limitless is a big reason why I’m able to work with such high-level clientele. I’m pretty relentless!
Can you share something surprising about yourself?
How much I care. A lot of people are intrigued by our business and think it’s glamorous. The part they don’t consider is the level of intimacy and vulnerability that’s involved. People share their hearts, wounds, stories and expectations with me. It’s a privilege to be in the position I’m in and help them get the happy ending that they deserve. I always say, “I’m your built-in confidante, casting director and cheerleader ~ let’s enjoy the ride!’
