Alexandria, Emily, and the entire EcoWilde team made our wedding extraordinary. They worked with us to refine our vision and truly made it come to life. The team answered all of our questions (no matter how small) and guided us through the entire design process. They were kind, patient, and professional. Everything looked exactly how we wanted it to, and we couldn't be happier! We wanted a progression in color throughout the night, with the ceremony having lighter colors and the reception having a moodier vibe-the EcoWilde team executed it perfectly. Not to mention that they were able to reuse and repurpose flowers to reduce waste. Thank you again to the EcoWilde team! We'd choose them again in a heartbeat. read more

Our planner found EcoWilde for us--and thank goodness. From our first meeting, we knew we were in excellent hands. Emily took our vague, half-formed thematic ideas and flower preferences and collaborated with us to turn them into a coherent plan that enhanced the "narrative" of the day beyond anything we'd imagined. I work in a creative field, and I recognized the energy they brought to the table from some of the best brainstorm sessions I've been a part of. Then, somehow, they and their team made it all REAL for us. From decorating our huppah to memorializing our late grandparents to bringing a rural inn to life in our decidedly industrial-loft venue, EcoWilde worked tirelessly to deliver just the right feel to our ceremony and reception. (And all on our comparatively slim budget, though I'm confident they could just as easily create something ten times as complicated.) The tablescape design was so beautiful that our caterer remarked on it--and one has to assume she's seen quite a few weddings before... All in all, our big day just wouldn't have been the same without Emily's vision, enthusiasm, and effort. We honestly feel lucky, even honoured, to have worked with them, and we recommend EcoWilde unreservedly. read more

Stunning Florals & an Amazing Experience! We are absolutely obsessed with the florals from our wedding, all thanks to the incredible talent of EcoWilde! From the very beginning, they were a dream to work with -- responsive, creative, and genuinely excited to help bring our vision to life. We were looking for something a bit more modern and unique than traditional wedding flowers, and Emily surpassed my expectations. The bouquets, boutonnieres, and accent pieces were nothing short of artistic masterpieces. Every arrangement felt fresh, current, and thoughtfully designed -- yet still timeless and elegant. The color palette, textures, and floral combinations left everyone in awe. The bride's bouquet was so beautiful she has it as the wallpaper on her cell phone. So many of our guests commented on how gorgeous and original the flowers were, and we couldn't agree more. They added such a special touch to our ceremony and reception -- it truly wouldn't have been the same without them. Beyond the beautiful work, Emily and her team were an absolute joy to collaborate with. They listened intently, offered great suggestions, and made the entire process feel effortless. You can tell they love what they do, and it shines through in every petal. If you're looking for a florist who will exceed expectations, bring fresh ideas to the table, and make your day feel uniquely you, we can't recommend EcoWilde enough! -- Kate and Kyle Calcagno read more

I found out about EcoWilde through social media- just one look at their page makes everything else look boring. The planning meeting was very fun, and the document she provides with the plan is very professional. They excelled in the stylistic component of the job 100%. I got quite a few compliments on my flowers the day of the wedding. Emily executed my idea of having a wooden hexagon and neon sign behind the sweetheart table and it was my favorite part of seeing our venue for the first time. She was ahead of schedule day-of which made me feel great. Just a point of improvement- the corsages were beyond gorgeous but they were falling apart for 2 of my ladies, and the kids boutonnière was also falling off. Overall I would definitely recommend EcoWilde to a friend and if I had to my wedding all over again I would definitely pick EcoWilde again! read more

We worked with EcoWilde for our wedding and asked for a "just picked" wild flower look centered around yellow and sunflowers. They delivered! Would recommend. read more

If I had to do a review of one vendor for our wedding it would be for Emily & her team at EcoWilde Flower Co. From start to finish our entire experience was simply put flawless.      The initial inquiry process was so easy and I felt like Emily already had the baseline info needed for our initial call. Scheduling was simple and easy which is sooo needed while trying to juggle wedding planning.       Emily was honestly amazing. She did such an amazing job listening to my vision and taking my non-florist verbiage and turning it into a tangible vision. I thoroughly enjoyed the in-person meeting. I felt so comfortable with Emily and felt like she really understood what I was going for. She was even able to accommodate my unique request of incorporating items I had already thrifted.        As high as my anticipations were for the florals I have to be honest, they by far exceeded anything I could have imagined. My bouquet was simply breathtaking. The arrangements were literally from my Pinterest dreams. I'll be honest, I cried (possibly a few times throughout the day).      Emily and her team worked so hard to put everything together for us. Not only were they able to accommodate an unexpected flip 5 days out due to weather, but Emily also did a wonderful job of staying calm and confident in the plan and reassuring my nerves.          One of my favorite moments of the night was the reveal of the reception. Emily was just as excited to show us what they put together as we were to see our dreams come true. That is literally everything you can ask for! read more

Emily is AMAZING!!! Right from the get-go, she was super responsive to our inquiry and we were able to easily set up time to discuss our vision in-person (pre-COVID). She did a great job of listening to our ideas and inspiration while weaving her expertise and creativity into the mix. We met with many different potential florists and we really liked how, when we first met with her, she broke out her sketchbook and started sketching ideas right then and there. We were looking for something somewhat untraditional for our wedding--a variety of really bright colors with a very organic look and feel. When we shared our ideas, it was clear Emily was really excited about our vision and helping make it a reality, which was great, and it really felt like the package and ideas she put together for us were truly custom to what we were looking for, compared to other florists where things felt a little more out of the box. Her pricing was also very competitive to the other florists we considered. Leading up to the event, she was one of our most organized vendors, which was really reassuring--especially bc there was about a year and a half (not to mention a pandemic) between when we booked Emily and when our wedding actually happened. Day-of, she truly delivered! She literally delivered the bouquets, boutonnieres and flower crowns to the hotel where we were getting ready (seeing those in person confirmed she really understood what we were looking for--they were gorgeous), then she and her assistant went to our venue to start making magic. Our jaws dropped when we arrived at the venue later that day and saw what she put together. It was absolutely beautiful and exceeded our expectations in every way. We had guests coming up to us all night commenting on how amazing the florals, vases, and votives were. We loved that she owned a great variety of vases and votives so we didn't have to hunt them down ourselves--and it's so much better for the environment because she is able to reuse them for multiple events instead of us having to buy everything and only using them for a single event. We also loved how, at the end of the night, Emily and her assistant returned to break everything down and she brought plenty of rubber bands and made mini bouquets out of the flowers so our guests were able to take some home with them. I only wish I could have taken more home so I could have enjoyed the florals for longer. Overall, we HIGHLY recommend Emily and would 1000% work with her again for any future events! read more

Do you need someone who will take your vague thoughts about what you're thinking and turn them into EXACTLY what you had imagined? Well, then Emily and EcoWilde Flower Co. is your place! Having a fall wedding, my partner and I wanted darker colors and a more abstract, untraditional look and feel to our flowers. Working with Emily great. She was super communicative and open to all of our ideas. Emily offered using found objects, such as feathers and honeycomb, to add texture and uniqueness, and we loved this idea. Something that really got us excited in working with Emily was the various ways we could have flowers for our wedding party. She made gorgeous gold cuffs for the mothers, flower crowns for the ladies, and boutonnieres for the guys. She has a whole list of different ideas for how to arrange your flowers, including necklaces! Our flowers were incredibly beautiful and fit the day so perfectly. There's photographic proof of me freaking out with joy in seeing my bouquet for the first time :) We couldn't be more grateful to Emily and her imagination! It was truly a special and magical part of our wedding day! read more

Emily at EcoWilde made sure our wedding day was absolutely perfect. Days later we keep reminiscing about how fantastic the room looked and how great it was to work with Emily. My husband accidentally smooshed his boutonnière before the ceremony and Emily noticed and immediately offered to, and was able to, remake it last minute. It's details like this that made the entire experience of working with Emily more than we could have ever expected. Leading up to the day she was easy to reach with all sorts of questions, happy to talk through and work with our budget, and worked hard to execute our vision to a level that exceeded our expectations. Emily is a rare vendor who keeps sustainability in mind, a factor that was much appreciated. She was also happy to listen to both of us and take into account both of our tastes and preferences. I know some vendors only care about working with and listening to the bride. We felt strongly that both of us should be heard throughout the process and Emily was so easy to work with in this respect. She was fantastic to work with from beginning to end! read more

We worked with EcoWilde for our wedding last weekend and were so impressed. We started with vague notions of what we wanted and Emily helped us flesh out ideas and execute in a way that exceeded our expectations. Emily was mindful of our budget and delivered more than we were expecting, even making our officiant a boutonniere on the spot. Also love that they're a sustainable business. Highly recommend! read more

As a wedding photographer, I get to work with many florists each season. I have been ever so lucky to work closely with Emily of EcoWilde Flower Co. this past season, and I have to say, her creativity is an inspiration! Emily thinks outside of the box to create extraordinary pieces that are fresh and unique. I've seen some of the coolest arrangements, from the loveliest bouquets, to some killer modern boutonnierre pieces, complete with metalwork accents - and floral earings!! Her love of color and nature is superbly channeled through her creations, while also understanding the vision of her clients. She truly knows how to transform a space! read more

Working with Emily and EcoWilde Flower Co. for our recent April wedding was absolutely perfect! I admittingly did not have much of a vision for our florals, but from the very first consultation Emily's expertise was evident and she ensured the process was seamless. The consultation and proposal design was very professional, informative and organized. Despite my lack of vision (or knowledge of flowers), she was able to put together a design that was exactly what we wanted! EcoWilde also designed a new arch for us to use and made sure it was tall enough for our 6ft+ officiant. Looking through our photos recently, I can't tell you how many times I said "I loved our flowers!" I would absolutely recommend working with EcoWilde for your next event! read more

Emily is amazing!! The flowers at the wedding transformed the venue. A joy to work with!

Emily has been phenomenal since the start of our 3-times-over delayed wedding. She took my vision and added her own amazing, creative insights and wow... the flowers just blew me away. Everyone at the wedding raved about them. I was honestly worried because originally, we were to have a summer wedding and I don't like the look of most winter arrangements. But Emily took it to the next level- they were a unique blend of fresh and dried flowers (as requested) and were honestly the best looking bouquets and boutonnieres I've ever seen. She went above and beyond our expectations. While we were driving around taking pictures, the bridesmaids kept marveling at their arrangements, noticing new flowers every few minutes. I can't express how truly happy I am that we went with EcoWilde! read more
