Wedding season is upon us, so we're bringing back one of your favorite series: 💌 Meet Jackie Acosta-Trejo (Lamprecht), BSBA’02, and Col. Will Acosta-Trejo, JD’04.
Many alumni remember The Blue Jay Bar and Grill as the backdrop for countless late nights, game-day watch parties, and happy hours. For Will and Jackie, it was also where their story began, with a mutal-friend introduction in 2001.
Fast friends first, then something more. By 2003, they were dating. Seven months later, Will proposed. After marrying in 2004, the two built a life together — from Will's active duty service in the U.S. Army to Jackie's career as a CPA, and eventually back to Omaha, where they've been raising their sons, Liam and Drew, ever since.
Two decades later, The Jay is gone — but what it gave them isn't. Grateful for it all the same. 💙
