Wedding Party

Dominick Williams

Groom

Dominick is easygoing, adventurous, and always up for something new—which is probably why he never saw Mallory coming. After graduating from the University of Iowa, he was living in Des Moines and preparing to start his MBA when he met her in the summer of 2019. She was only supposed to be in town for a few months, but instead, they built something that lasted far beyond that. After a few years of long distance, including a semester when Mallory moved back to Iowa for another school rotation, they knew they were ready for their next chapter together. In 2021, after they both finished grad school, they packed up and moved to Arizona, where they built a life filled with laughter, adventure, and an ever-growing number of pets. Dominick is passionate about music and plays piano, bass, and guitar. He also loves gaming, reading, and finding new places to explore with Mallory. He’s beyond excited to celebrate their wedding day and make even more unforgettable memories with the people they love most!

Mallory Applegate

Bride

Mallory has always been determined—whether it’s in her career as a physical therapist, her competitive streak in kickball, or her mission to adopt every dog she meets. But in 2019, life surprised her with something she hadn’t planned for: Dominick. While in Iowa for a clinical rotation, she met him in what was supposed to be a fun summer fling. Instead, they fell in love. Despite living in Minnesota, Mal and Dom made long distance work, even managing to live together for a semester when she returned to Iowa for another school rotation. By 2021, they both finished grad school and took a leap of faith—moving to Arizona with their dog, Lennox. Since then, they’ve added two more dogs, Emma and Fiona, two fish tanks, and countless memories to their life together. Mallory loves reading, traveling, and competing against Dominick in just about anything (even if he claims to win more often). She can’t wait to celebrate their wedding day with all the people who have supported them along the way!

Daniel Williams

Best Man

Alannah Boncher

Matron of Honor

Alannah and Mallory’s friendship began in 2016 at St. Catherine University, where they quickly became inseparable. From late-night study sessions to endless laughter, their bond only grew stronger over the years. Through life’s many changes—including new cities, new pets, and exciting milestones—they have remained each other’s constant source of support, encouragement, and adventure. Alannah now lives in Lakeville, Minnesota, with her fiancé, Zach, and their two beloved dogs, Lucas (10) and Yogi (2). When she’s not spoiling her pups, she’s tending to her ever-growing collection of plants or planning her next travel adventure.
