Romantic Purple - PH

PhotoHunt theme : Purple

The colour purple is associated with royalty and regality. It is also considered a romantic colour because of its passionate and unpredictable characteristics.

Purple balloons in the air!

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.

Gift from Marriage Central : A purple Conversation Starter for couples

Whether you're a newly-wed couple or are celebrating your 5oth wedding anniversary, there are always more things to learn about each other. There are 50 interesting and engaging conversation starters in this box to inspire and entertain couples.

Samples of the questions :

- In our relationship, I would like less .......

- What are some of your happiest memories about our married life together so far?

- What would you rather be : handsome/ beautiful or incredibly wise?

- If someone offered us an all-expense paid second honeymoon anywhere in the world, where would you want to go and why?

Flirt, laugh when you answer the questions, no need to get too serious. :P

Most importantly, enjoy each other's company.

    I guess all the activities are meant to remind us to treasure our loved ones, and find ways to show our love for them.

  10. 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.

  12. oceanskies,
    That 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.

    I'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. :(

  20. 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

  27. Purple 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 !

  33. Love 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!
