Pearlann Arnovitz & Andrew Rosenzweig
May 18, 2013, The Island House

Inspiration: it always strikes when you least expect it. Take the case of Pearlann Arnovitz, for example, who stumbled upon the dream colors for her Big Day during an ordinary visit to her mother’s house. “She had out this gorgeous spread of ranunculus in fuchsia, hot pink, and orange,” recalls Atlanta native Pearlann. “I knew immediately those flowers held the look I wanted,” she says. After hiring event designer Cindy Zingerella and floral maven Judy Johnston, both of Engaging Events, those happy hues sprang to life at the verdant outdoor venue The Island House on John’s Island when Pearlann said “I do” to her sweetheart, New Jersey native Andrew Rosenzweig, whom she met on JDate.com some six years prior. “The day was more incredible than I could have imagined,” Pearlann says.
