Looking for a different spin on centerpieces for your next party?  You don’t have to travel any further than your herb garden.  Fall trends for floral arrangements include herbaceous plants—lavender, basil, mint, among others—that are set to go to seed.  These floral arrangements provide a wonderfully wild, organic element to your home or event décor and smell absolutely divine.
     At Riven Rock Ranch we have the perfect vantage point to see wedding trends take shape. We work with masters in the field like Viridian Design Studios, who meld current wedding trends perfectly with the bride’s personal style.  Recently, we’ve seen this trend pop up at a recent wedding on the ranch, featuring elements that included sage and rosemary topiaries as well as arrangements featuring olive leaves, wheat shafts and lavender blossoms to mirror the bucolic and upscale feeling of Riven Rock Ranch. Posey Events, the designers behind the floral arrangements and décor, combined simple, natural pieces for the aisle chairs with more traditional arrangements perched high atop architectural iron candelabras.
     Combining the beauty of great focal blossoms, with simple elements you have around your home and garden, these arrangements are at once stunning and stunningly easy to create. Here are some beautiful arrangements featured in the Wall Street Journal Homes section and created by New York floral designer Nicolette Owens of Nicolette Camille, to get your creative juices flowing creating your own arrangements.
