Truden what?

Trudenvick!

What's up with the onion flower wedding invite? And "Truden" what?! Well, let us tell ya! Trudenwilk is Brad's childhood nickname, given by our friends Jamie Simko & Jeremy Van Liew. It was a goofy name for a goofy guy. Ask him the name origin story when you have a few minutes! Having grown up in a small town, Trude n' Vick (get it? ;)) met during high school & played in a band together. Intrigued by this tall homeschooled, hilarious, long winded fellow she only really talked to on AIM instant messenger (R.I.P. AIM), Victoria invited him to senior prom, they dated, broke up, and fast forward 7 years, we began dating again as young adults! Ask us that story when you have all day! ;) After a few years of dating, Trude took Vick on a special trip to the Imperial Valley to visit his family onion harvesting business which was central to his lineage. Brad grew up working on and off with his dad at their family run harvesting company. Brad told stories of the countless hours his family and he worked at the onion shed. The onion flower wedding invites represent Bradlee's family's generation long history in onion harvesting. Raised in a humble and very hard working family, the whimsical romantic onion flowers grow alive through the wedding invite, representing a sweet, fun, strong and growing relationship I have with Bradlee based in hard work, love and family. Join us, Trude n' Vick, as we gather in Temecula to eat, drink and celebrate our union!
