I assume you are asking because you saw this page here?

Installing Wood Ceilings & Cost compared to Drywall

If not, have a look since there are different examples of style, wood type and finish. We aren't suppliers of wood, my suggestion for you would be to try local lumber yards and even building supply box stores in your area. Since you won't be walking on it there are more options than there are with floors, you can even search for used flooring or ceiling finishing wood online, or use barn boards, the options are pretty endless. You can even cover ceilings with finishing grade plywood.
