In credits, the producers acknowledge the Kombumerri people of the Yugambeh language region, in which the film was shot. The screenwriters, Hilary Galanoy and Elizabeth Hackett have teamed up before in 'Falling Inn Love' and 'Love, Guaranteed'.
Reception
Film critic Aurora Amidon wrote that the film contains the hallmarks of a successful Hallmark film. She described Lola as a "refreshingly inspirational female character". The film indeed shares the title with a Hallmark film, ("The Perfect Pairing") that was released earlier this year. The scene of singalong to "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" by Jet is characterized as visual panache. Screen Rant reviewed the film as it may not "stand out to most but its aura is enough to warrant a watch." The film received some criticism as well. Natasha Alvar wrote the conversations are a "snooze fest" and minor characters are not very interesting.
