LOVE was on the shopping lists on Saturday, as Cupid turned up at a Reading shopping centre, complete with his bow and arrow.

There was music, and love and romance – but no moonlight – as Broad St. Mall turned its spotlight on an early celebration of Valentine’s Day.

A floral bench was installed in Central Square, so customers could take a selfie with their loved one or best friend.

And there was a hedged heart set up full with red roses.

Visitors could pick a flower and take home with them. For those with a sweeter tooth and younger in years, chocolate heart lollipops on offer.

And to cap it off, there was a performance from Reading Male Voice Choir.

Ahead of the day, Steven Connolly, general manager of Broad St. Mall said: “It’s great we have so much on offer this Valentine’s Day at Broad Street Mall. Whether with a friend or a loved one, we hope customers enjoy celebrating at the mall with us.”

Judging from our pictures, they certainly did.
