Petals & Roots
About Petals & Roots
Petals & Roots is a floral design company based in Astoria, Queens, run by Peter and Alex — a married couple who both grew up in families rooted in the flower business. That generational knowledge gives them an understanding of flowers that goes deeper than design school alone.
Their style spans classic and contemporary, and they handle weddings, corporate installations, and residential work. For weddings, they offer the full range — personal flowers, ceremony arrangements, and reception design.
Being NYC-based, Petals & Roots travels to Hudson Valley wedding venues for events in the region. Astoria is roughly an hour to an hour and a half from the lower Hudson Valley, which puts them in practical range for venues in Westchester, Putnam, and southern Dutchess County. For venues further north, travel logistics would be a bigger factor.
The family-business background is worth noting. Peter and Alex didn’t come to floristry as a second career — they grew up around it. That kind of lifetime exposure to the business tends to produce florists who are efficient, resourceful, and less likely to be surprised by the logistics of a wedding day.
Reviews highlight their flexibility and customer service. They’re described as responsive and willing to work with different styles and budgets, which makes them a versatile choice for couples who aren’t locked into a single aesthetic.
