Timeless Arches, LLC 
Rating: 5.0 (17 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • Florist
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Nevada City, CA
  • Offer

Timeless Arches was born from a lifelong love of flowers and a belief that beauty shouldn't be fleeting. Growing up in a florist shop, I developed an eye for floral design — and when premium faux florals became indistinguishable from the real thing, I found the perfect medium: stunning, sustainable, and built to last. We create show-stopping ceremony installations — arches, flower walls, urns, and aisle décor — designed to anchor your most photographed moments. Many pieces travel beautifully to your reception for a sweetheart table, cake table, or entryway display. Serving couples across Sacramento, Reno & Lake Tahoe.

“Lush and amazing, it was hard to believe the flowers weren't real. They were pleasant to touch, soft and plaint, almost moist looking. Heather Dodd was most pleasant to work with and full of creative ideas.”

Lindsey, the lead planner/owner, has an eye for design and is incredibly supportive of both her couples and vendors. She remains calm and collected with a genuine smile. A venue was VERY late in unlocking the property and she quickly found a solution to ensure the wedding went off without a hitch. Lindsey's hands-on approach and dedication to making each couple her top priority is truly admirable. She goes above and beyond to provide amazing support throughout the planning process.”

If you’ve landed here, my guess is you want the perfect balance. Someone who will give you direction during your couple’s portraits, while avoiding making you feel like you’re on the MET gala red carpet during your ceremony. I’m here to help you feel at ease, to make jokes, to reassure you everything and nothing matters all in the same breath. I take years of stealthy concert photography skills and apply that to documenting the candid familial embrace. The wild shirtless last dance of the evening. The moment when you two look at each other after all the speeches are done, and you realize how wonderful it is to be showered with so much love.

“Jess was an absolute dream to work with. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease, which honestly made such a difference on a day that can be a little overwhelming. Her eye for capturing the real, beautiful moments—both big and small—is just incredible. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the whole day in the best way. She’s warm, grounded, and so talented. I can’t recommend her enough.”

“Harmony Ridge Lodge was the perfect choice for our wedding venue. From the moment we first reached out, the team was quick to respond and incredibly friendly. Faith, our day-of coordinator, was a lifesaver. She managed our vendors, pushed us to get certain vendors when needed, and kept us calm and stress-free on our big day. The venue itself is gorgeous, nestled in a beautiful forest setting. The rooms were amazing, with plush bedding and extra pillows and blankets if needed. And the food was outstanding. The chef prepared a delicious breakfast each morning, like a sweet potato sausage hash, eggs, and pancakes, and made sure everyone got a chance to eat before it ended. Most of all, it had all of the forest vibes I wanted. While other wedding venues felt more artificial with its nature, this venue had its gorgeous trees, its rustic rooms, and it was located in a quiet, lovely town. Though it was far away for our guests to travel, it was a very gorgeous scenic drive as well. We couldn't have asked for a better experience at Harmony Ridge Lodge!”

“We truly couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding day. We were able to stay at Shadows for the long weekend - which allowed us to set up and DIY most our wedding. Our family and closest friends got to stay with us on the property for the weekend, which made it feel so much more special - and made us feel like we had so much time to take our wedding weekend in with everyone (rather that just one day). The venue was so spacious, which made the event feel large and free - rather than everyone being on top of each other. We used the following spaces for each part of our wedding: - Backyard grass and overlook - Ceremony - Front yard grass - Dinner & Speaches - Barn - Desserts, Snacks, Seating / Lounge Area, Guest Book - Barn Deck - Dancefloor & DJ We worked with Scena as our day-of coordinator and she was THE BEST! Helped so much with timeline, setup, coordination, rehersal, clean up - EVERYTHING! Truly could not say enough good things about her.”

They were well worth every penny we spent to hire them for my wedding for my bridal hair and makeup as well as for my bridal party. Jasmine, Alicia and Katie all killed it in the best possible way. I loved my trial when we did it, but decided to add hair extensions and I’m SO glad I did! Alicia was a wizard when it came to put them in and doing my hairstyle. My hair and make up went perfectly with my dress & veil. I have never felt so beautiful in my life and they executed my bridal look above and beyond what I could’ve ever hoped for. My bridesmaids and Maid of Honor, and our mother’s were absolute perfection. Everyone had very natural looking makeup with a little glam. It was perfect for our outdoor wedding. We were a quiet group lol probably more than other bridal parties. But we still had a great time! There are truly not enough “Thank you’s” for me to say, but I am so grateful for their time and talents that they shared to make my day and myself as beautiful as it could be. Thank you for being apart of all of our pictures and memories. They were absolutely the BEST team for our hair & makeup! It showed why they are a preferred vendor for so many venues.

With a sociological background + training in event design + planning, & her detail-oriented eye; Stephanie approaches each Wedding as an opportunity to connect to each client's innermost desires, while fostering memorable relationships. Just as each individual has a unique fingerprint, molded by inherent characteristics and shaped by experiences; Stephanie strives to identify that unique vision that each couple has, to then craft an event that resonates :)

“Our goal for our wedding was to be able to fully enjoy celebrating with our friends and family without worrying about anything, and Stephanie made that happen. She was on top of everything, always available, and quick to respond, and it genuinely felt like we were on the same wavelength throughout the entire planning process. As a conflict-averse bride, it was a relief having Stephanie in my corner to advocate for us when a vendor presented options we didn’t love or when there were too many familial opinions flying around. She listened closely to our vision and, with her years of experience, offered thoughtful guidance on how to bring our ideas to life. Stephanie oversaw every single tiny detail and effortlessly rolled with our last-minute changes. Even with other events going on, it always felt like we were a priority, and her genuine care for us made all the difference. She made it possible for us, and our parents, to relax and fully enjoy our wedding. We can’t recommend her highly enough.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Not sure where to begin writing this review. There are truly no words big enough to describe how special Cello Joe was as our wedding DJ. He wasn’t just a part of our wedding day, he made our wedding day. From the very first moment to the very last song, he gave us something so magical, so unforgettable, that it still makes us emotional to think about. He was literally the heartbeat of our day. He played live cello pre ceremony for all the guests to enjoy that was truly so beautiful. But the live cello as I walked down the aisle is a memory etched into our hearts forever. It was more than music. It felt like the soundtrack to our love story, and it was the most beautiful beginning to the rest of our lives. Then, during cocktail hour, he transformed the atmosphere with looping, beatboxing, and cello in a way that left every single guest completely captivated. People couldn’t stop talking about it, and even now, they’re still telling us it was the most unique and breathtaking performance they’ve ever experienced at a wedding from start to finish. And then there was the saxophonist he brought in during the dance party. pure magic. Together, they created an energy that was electric, soulful, and overflowing with joy. They didn’t just entertain, they touched every heart in the room. Not only was he the most talented cello musician, he absolutely crushed the dance party and played non stop for 3:30 hours. Not one bad song or bad mix. It was absolutely incredible. But what truly sets him apart is how much heart he pours into what he does. Without us even knowing, he recorded our entire ceremony, our cocktail hour, our dance floor, and gifted us not just music, but memories. He allowed us to relive the most important day of our lives again and again. That level of thoughtfulness is beyond anything we could have imagined. Our wedding was perfect because of him. He exceeded every expectation and gave us more than we ever dreamed possible. He is, without question, the most talented, kind, and extraordinary musician and DJ we have ever met. If we could give him more than 5 stars, we would. To us, he isn’t just the best wedding DJ in the world, he’s someone we will forever be grateful for, someone who gave us the gift of a wedding day that truly felt like a dream. Cello Joe, thank you for all the moments you created throughout our weekend. You truly are one of the most talented people we’ve ever met and I will be recommending you to everybody I know!!”
