Morphology
The phrase combines 'beyond' (exceeding), the superlative 'wildest' (most extreme), and 'dreams' (imagined hopes), so its overall meaning — exceeding even one’s most extreme imaginings — follows directly from the parts. This compositional pattern is common across languages and uses straightforward intensification and comparison, so a B1 learner who knows the constituents will readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
The phrase beyond wildest dreams gives a clear picture: your wildest dreams are your most exciting hopes. If something is beyond them, it is even more wonderful than you could 'imagine' or 'hope'.
