Timeless Arches, LLC

  • 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.

“From the moment we first reached out to Timeless Arches, LLC, we knew we had found the right florist for our wedding. Their team was responsive and clear about what they could do for us, which made the entire planning process feel smooth and stress-free. On our ceremony day, they delivered exactly what we envisioned—the urns and pedestals looked magazine-worthy, and the flowers were so realistic we had to do a double take. The setup was stunning and truly transformed our space into something magical. They went above and beyond what we expected, and we are so grateful to have chosen them. I highly recommend Timeless Arches to any couple looking to make their ceremony unforgettable.”

“Angie was fabulous to work with on our wedding day! From the moment she arrived at our venue, she was was everywhere at once. We were so impressed with her ability to capture all of the most important moments of the day, while not ever being intrusive or "in your face." We had so many compliments from guests about her professionalism throughout the night and so many people commented on how much they were impressed by her. Angie is phenomenal, she kept us organized on track and we had so much fun doing the photos. Looking back at the photos I remember laughing and truly enjoying myself. The day after the wedding, Angie sent over a gallery of sneak peeks and our jaws DROPPED at the speed and quality of the photos. We cannot stop looking through them! Angie made all of our bridal party, guests and us feel comfortable which made for fantastic and natural photos. We highly recommend Angie and Mindful Media Photography for your wedding!

It’s perfect for cocktail hour or slipping away for an iconic photoshoot you’ll treasure forever.

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!”

Stephanie Marie Morris has spent 15+ years in the event industry: fueled by the social impact, togetherness, and love that each carefully-planned event has imparted onto its guests. 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 :)

“To say working with Stephanie was amazing, would be an understatement. My husband and I got engaged in late December 2024 and we hired Stephanie January 2025 to plan our Lake Tahoe October 2025 wedding. From the moment we first made contact with Stephanie, she was completely committed to helping us create our special day. I had a very specific vision for how I wanted our wedding day to look and Stephanie delivered beyond what I could have imagined. Her attention to detail is uncanny. The minutia was just as important as the grand events of the day. I consider myself to be an organized person, but Stephanie's organization is next level. I was definitely a "type A" or "needy" bride and continually checked in with Stephanie about details/schedules/vendors/etc., and sometimes even jumped the gun on planning details. Not once did Stephanie make me feel bad about my nervous energy or impulsive decisions, but rather reassured me of the planning process and reminded me that whatever I wanted she was going to help me get it; whether it was a specific vendor or design detail. She was always available to answer my emails or texts all while meeting the needs of her other brides, and that is something I greatly appreciated. The weeks leading up to your wedding day become hectic and overwhelming at times, but that's where Stephanie shines. She took care of every detail imaginable-and I mean EVERY DETAIL. She help relieved the pressure off my husband and I, which allowed us to enjoy and revel in the excitement of the coming day. On our wedding day, she worked endlessly to make sure every aspect was perfect and exactly how we wanted it, all while still finding the time to physically check in with both myself and husband while we were getting ready for the day. Even throughout the afternoon and evening, if my husband or I needed something she would magically appear, despite continuing to juggle the events of the evening. Stephanie is the type of planner, and person, who gives 100% of herself to her couples and that is an aspect of a planner that money can't buy. She cares deeply about helping you achieve the wedding day of your dreams, and she certainly did just that, and more for us. Choosing Stephanie to plan our wedding day was the best decision we could have made and I will forever be thankful for her and the day she created for my husband and I. Thanks to Stephanie we truly had the best wedding day, and in turn, have the fondest memories to carry with us.”
