The Arch of Reno Wedding Chapel recently celebrated it's 19th year as a family owned and operated chapel in downtown Reno. We rang in 2016 by relocating to an amazing modern chapel at 119 N. Virginia Street directly across from Reno City Hall, 2 buildings south of our original location. We can now accommodate parties of 2 to 60 people.
Parking is available by turning left (east) on First Street and then left (north) on Center Street to access the entrance to the Cal-Neva garage (east side of Center Street). Most of the time the Cal Neva's parking garage is free. The city garage (west side of Center Street) is available for $1 per hour.

Shelby is very passive-aggressive in calls, she gets irritated very easily. The other workers were super nice when I went there.

ABSOLUTELY TOP SHELF! Won't ever be getting married again as I waited 21 years for her, but hey, check them out. Professional, friendly, courteous, great atmosphere, and fabulous driver who took us on a lovely tour of the greater Reno area!

As wedding chapels go, this was very much no fuss. Very straightforward. My daughter and her fiance wanted a low key event, and that's what happened. The people there were friendly, not very imposing, which was good. In and out in 20 minutes or so.

Beautiful venue and the minister did an amazing job with the ceremony. Perfect place for a simple but elegant wedding.

Communication was poor, our limo had to park outside of valet parking because they couldn't get in there but no one called and notified us of the change so we waited outside for a long time not knowing where they were. Venue is located in a sketchy area, there is a group of homeless people who hang out and harass people going inside the venue, hitting doors and windows and yelling, they also go inside and harass everyone.

There was a very limited selection of dresses and shoes. No pictures were taken during the ceremony, only after and the photographer didn't seem like she knew what she was doing. The most disappointing part of the whole thing was when the pictures finally came in we had no say in which ones were printed and mailed to us, we paid extra for the $200 photo package and they decided for us which pictures needed to be what size and mailed to us with no selection so the pictures we got weren't very good, not the ones I would have chosen to be printed, very unfair!

I can't say enough about the folks that run this place. We wanted a very simple wedding with no frills. We almost went the shotgun courtroom route, but I am so thankful we didn't. Immediately upon entering, they will remind you that this is supposed to be fun. They took all but the obvious nerves away and provided us something beautiful and unique. I want them to know how special they made our day and I believe that if you decide to go this route. They will make yours.

We were undecided between this place and the antique angel. I'm so glad we decided to go here! We got married November 21 2021 our appointment was for 6:00 PM they were amazing from the first phone call to the goodbyes. The ceremony was short sweet and intimate. They even threw in a rose ceremony for free since we were her last appointment for the day! I loved the staff they were very friendly and made my wedding the best I can't thank them enough for their help on our special day!

OMG Everything was beautiful thank you! We decided to get married finally after 14 years! Even tho we were in the middle of a pandemic they made it safe and they made it happen! The music, video, pictures, flowers, and marriage certificate was all included in packet. You get a private ceremony in a decorated room. The lady officiant was great! Im thankful that all my kids was able to witness mom and dad finally getting married! Nice experience thank you Arch Of Reno

This chapel has more than one room so multiple weddings can be held. Huge bar nextdoor in the basement for receptions. Play areas and bowling for kids and adults

Great place in downtown Reno for a wedding. The staff and minister were very friendly. It was a very great day. Even had a complementary limo pick us up from the peppermill and drop us back off. Absolutely worth it!

We were not planning on doing very much but wanted to do more than the court house steps. We really didn't have any expectations which left us pleasantly surprised how nice it actually was. It was just the two of us but if we had a small party with us? Would have been happy.

Got married here & it went perfectly. Limo was on time and was in to get married right away. Staff are wonderful. They also had my perfect bouquet of flowers without even knowing I liked sunflowers definitely recommend this place. My mother 10 years ago & my sister 3 years ago got married here as well. Every time was perfect.

They made our wedding day very very special. The photos they took turned out beautiful. The dvd of our ceremony is something I cherish. The man that officiated was amazing. I really was very very impressed. Fresh flower bouquet and boutonniere. A limo picked all of us up and drove us to get the marriage license and then to the chapel and then back to our hotel.

They made it all very easy and we were able to enjoy the moment. Over all we are very pleased we chose Arch of Reno wedding chapel for our special day! Would highly recommend to all.

I will start of my saying, I have already called and asked to speak with the owner but they have not yet called me back this was over two weeks ago. Firstly me and my husband got married here back in November 2019 and it was great a beautiful experience. I had recommended my cousin and her fiance to get married her and it was a WHOLE different experience. It's was horrible, never will I recommend this location again.

I don't know if the night crew is different then the evening but it was embarrassing. There are a couple of things that are understandable with COVID, but this was so unprofessional. Let me start with the minister was a nice man, no complaints on him. When we booked we were told the limo couldn't be used but the party right before us was able to use it?

I found that strange and unfair since the cost typically includes limo rental. If your going to say no limo be CONSISTENT. Now to my really problem was The front desk lady Debbie or whatever her name was, the one with a mullet, she was talking extremely loud the whole time we were there, I don't recall her wearing at mask at anytime, and right before the bride was supposed to walk down the isle she smacked a "bug" on the door with her hand or a shoe or something but it was extremely loud and unnecessary.

However what really upset me was she offered to take our family photo which was nice BUT the fact when we were going to take a family photo she told my brother to "get on his knees" and he didn't want to and instead of being like okay never mind she kept saying AWE JUST GET ON YOUR KNEESS COME ON DONT BE LIKE THAT. When he clearly was not comfortable with that.

One of our cousins did kneel to just get the situation over with and she has the audacity to tell my brother you don't have a nice smile, because he wouldn't kneel?! Sarcastic or not it was not funny nor did we appreciate being spoken to that way. And then we were forced to tip the minister which makes no sense since the fee is already included.

We have no problem tipping but if we felt it was necessary we would have. If you don't care about your special day being nice or having professionals go ahead and go here. And I'm sure Shelby didn't give my number or say that I called to the owner but if she did and the owner just refused to call me back that's proof of the kind of business they run.

The staff is great everybody was positive and helpful the photographer was great the only thing is I wish we could have proof read the photos prior to receiving them as the top of my dress was not straightened out other than that thank you arch of Reno for such a simple beautiful wedding

I got married on Christmas Day and it was perfect. The limo picked us up from our hotel and took us to get our marriage licenses and straight to the chapel. Everyone was very friendly with a great sense of humor. They made my family and I feel comfortable there. The set up was great and Steven was the best. His words to my husband and I were so touching and meaningful. Thank you all for making my special day very special.

We attended a small wedding ceremony there recently and we found it to be a nice venue. It doesn't look like much on the outside but it was great for a small wedding. The chapel was clean and comfortable, and the seating area in the lobby was really nice too. They let us take photos during the ceremony if we wanted to. I hope the couple we saw get married there enjoyed it. Everything seemed to go smoothly. Nice spot for a quickie wedding!
