the Future Mr. and Mrs. Blumenberg

David and Isabella became friends in college thanks to a tiny hometown twist—one of Isabella’s roommates knew David from back home (We love you Bri 🤍) Fast forward to a not-so-lucky day in Asbury when Isabella blew out her tire. Naturally, she called David for help (mostly to avoid calling her family) and he showed up like AAA. A few days later, they went to Playa Bowls as casual friends. When David opened the car door for her, Isabella had a suspicious thought: “Wait… is this a date?” spoiler alert: it was. They started dating Junior year at Monmouth University and spent every summer together in LBI making memories, laughing together, and telling way too many LBI bartenders that they were getting married at their bar. spoiler 2: little did they know they really would be getting married at one of those bars Eventually, they moved back to Monmouth County and added the sweetest little family member… Winnie. Fast forward to 2024: during their annual “end of summer” beach trip, David suggested a quick Playa Bowl stop before a winery day. Instead of just smoothies, Isabella got the ultimate surprise—David proposed, right where it all began… on the beach near Playa Bowl 🤍
