The Wild Flower is a boutique florist on the ground floor of the Grand Arcade, 18 Willis Street, in the heart of Wellington's CBD. The shop makes bouquets, arrangements and bespoke designs for weddings, events, corporate clients and hospitality, and it sells gifts such as Living Light scented candles, locally made chocolates, gift cards and indoor plants. The website says its flowers come from growers in New Zealand and overseas. Bouquets can be ordered online for same-day delivery across the Wellington region if the order is in before 3pm, Monday to Friday. In store, the hours are 8.30am to 5.30pm on weekdays and 9am to 1pm on Saturdays. Ready-made bouquets are often available to buy in store.
Customers say the team came up with something lovely from a few basic details, and that flowers were chosen in the colours they asked for. One buyer sent a bouquet to friends who had lost a pet, and said it was the perfect gift and good value. Others praise the flowers as artful and long-lasting. Flower arrangements and wedding bouquets come up most often. Among the six other florists within a kilometre, Scent Floral Boutique, 0.7 km away, rates 4.4 from 105 reviews.
