Asbury Park Wedding

A seaside resort town, Asbury Park once flourished, but businesses later moved out and large parts of the city lay abandoned, so much so that a city manager called it 'Sarajevo-by-the-sea'. In the past few years, there has been a resurgence in the real estate market as the town center has gradually become more gentrified and as developers have begun various large projects in different areas of the city.
