Wilder Gardens and Flowers

A full-service wedding florist serving NYC, Syracuse, Rochester, and The Finger Lakes, Wilder Gardens + Flowers has created wildly elegant florals for galas, fashion shows, and weddings at some of the best venues in New York for over a decade, and more recently, at boutique venues in Central New York. Owner and Lead Designer Alex Abuza approaches her beautifully untamed wedding flowers with passion, cohesiveness, and an environmental ethic, taking inspiration from the landscapes, gardens and seasons around her.

Alex is a garden designer as well as floral designer and a true outdoors woman who is always seeking inspiration outside. It is the wild beauty of the landscape that most inspires her and infuses her floral work. Whether her clients’ wedding decor calls for dramatic design or the simple strokes of nature, Alex breathes life and energy into their visions with her modern organic aesthetic, incorporating locally field-grown flowers, blooms from her cutting gardens and forage from her land wherever possible.
