The colour purple is associated with royalty and regality. It is also considered a romantic colour because of its passionate and unpredictable characteristics.
Marriage Central wants to help couples build lasting and fulfilling marriages. At one event, couples celebrating their love at Marina Barrage were given purple balloons.

What a fascinating post! Love the ballons and the big heart. Thanks and have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteLove your purple choices, I never knew purple was a romantic color!!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend, my friend!
Hi that's a nice entry for this week's theme. I didn't know that purple is associated with romance too. I knew about its regal characteristics.
ReplyDeleteJL,
ReplyDeleteSingapore has happening events every week. No lack of fun and activity. :)
oceanskies,
ReplyDeleteThat day, Marina Barrage was decorated with purple and pink balloons and flower arches.
Couples are so preoccupied by work these days that they hardly spend time with each other or their loved ones. Such activity gives them an opportunity to show their love for each other.
Annie,
ReplyDeleteMany couples, young and old, turned up for this event.
Happy weekend!
Mar,
ReplyDeletePurple is such a romantic colour and I find it pretty too. Although some guys would never want to wear this colour. :P
Happy weekend!
Photo Cache,
ReplyDeleteI probably will see more posts showing its regal characteristics this week. :)

Napaboaniya,
ReplyDeleteI'll remember to jio you next time when there's such events. There were so much purple items to take that day! All so romantic!
The wedding event organised by Hokkien Huay Guan was cancelled or else the two of us could take part. :(
Never associated purple with romance -- always somehow thought of it as a supernatural type of color -- can imagine purple bolts coming out of witches' wands, for instance! ;b
ReplyDeleteThat's a great post and photos for this week. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the purple balloons photo and all your tidbits of information. Great post!
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful way to express the theme....that just lovely....
ReplyDeleteLovely post ECL, you always have such great ideas for Photo Hunt.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend to you.
During National Service, we keep on singing:"Purple light in the valley"... sing for so long, not many knows what this purple light means?

Up,up & away! Those purple balloons!
ReplyDeletehereby i wed XXXXXX ??? When when? ahha
ReplyDeleteLovely purple post!
ReplyDeletePurple here is also a funeral color, not so much royal and not at all wedding. I would rather be handsome than wise, I realized that handsome people have an easier life than wise once ! hehehe !
ReplyDeleteLove your first shot. Beautifully taken (=
ReplyDeleteBeautiful purples! Have a great weekend ECL!
ReplyDeleteNow, that is really a romantic purple :)
ReplyDeleteThose conversation cards are great topics too
Happy weekend!
Purple balloons make all the difference.
ReplyDeleteThat's quite an interesting event. Love the purple balloons!
ReplyDeleteNice and cool event...happy weekend. mine is up too.
ReplyDeleteLove the purple ballons for romantic gathering. Purple has not the same meaning in France and I realize the colours offer different vision all over the world! Marriages need help sometimes after several years old! It's a reality we should take care here in Europa too!
ReplyDeleteeastcoast, I've been divorced since 1976! Cute post :)
ReplyDeleteThat is the sweetest thing. I really find Singaporeans to be very committed to their marriages. It's really great.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comment. Enjoy the weekend and come back tomorrow!
