Lakeside weddings at the Tallac Historic Site.
Valhalla is a 1920s Grand Hall and boathouse on Lake Tahoe's south shore, set among old-growth pines a few steps from the water. Timber, stone, and that filtered Sierra light give it character most venues spend a fortune trying to fake.
A room with this much presence doesn't want to be covered up. We design florals that work with the wood and the pines: textural, seasonal, a little wild at the edges, never fussy. The Grand Hall takes statement installations beautifully; the boathouse and lawn ceremonies call for something looser and lakeside.
Because Valhalla is part of a state historic site, load-in and breakdown follow specific rules and timing. We've worked within them before and plan the day so the constraints never reach you.
Of the place
Pine, fern, and textural blooms that echo the forest setting rather than fight it.
Built for the Hall
Statement pieces scaled to the timber Grand Hall, plus looser lakeside ceremony work.
Foam-free
California-grown stems, no floral foam: better for the design and for the lake.
Site-savvy
We plan around the historic-site load-in and timing so nothing falls on you.
The timber Grand Hall is the star. We build pieces that read against dark wood and stone rather than disappearing into them.
Ferns, textural greens, and garden-grown blooms that feel like they belong to the Tallac forest.
The Hall wants scale and drama; the boathouse and lawn want something looser and lakeside. We design each on its own terms.
As a state historic site, Valhalla has firm load-in and strike windows. We plan the whole day around them so nothing runs late.
$10,000–$18,000
