Shelby Flournoy
Maid of Honor
My name is Shelby Flournoy, and I am Allie’s Maid of Honor. I live in San Antonio, Texas, and I’m in sales. So, if you’re looking for someone to chat with at the reception, come find me! Allie and I met in college through mutual friends. She was one of the first people I befriended after leaving my small hometown for San Marcos. She was so kind, genuine, and fun loving. We immediately became close friends, and started doing everything together. We’ve had many adventures, and shared so many special moments. I owe so much of my personal development to Allie. She’s the one I call when I need advice, no matter the topic. It’s been an honor to have Allie in my life, and I’m sure you all feel the same way. She’s an amazing catch, and Parker is lucky to have her! Speaking of the groom….the first time I met Parker, I knew he was the one for Allie. The three of us spent the weekend at the Stockyards, where I watched them laugh and dance together, until a reasonable hour of course. He couldn’t take his eyes off her, and I had never seen her so happy. The day he proposed was definitely one of my favorite memories. There’s nothing like seeing your best friend find the love of her life. I can’t wait to send them off on a lifetime of love and happiness!
Megan Tsifopanopoulos
Bridesmaid
My name is Megan Tsifopanopoulos and I am one of Allie’s bridesmaids! I live in Allen, Texas with my husband (Aris), daughter (Phebe), and dog (Goober). I teach English as a Second Language to newcomer immigrant students in Plano ISD. I first met Allie when I moved from Chicago to Dallas in 8th grade. I was struggling to adjust to my new surroundings and felt alone. Allie noticed and (being the kind-hearted woman we all know and love!) invited me to run with her during gym class. We’ve been besties ever since! Allie was my rock throughout high school, college, and into adulthood. She was always there every step of the way and forever stood by my side. On my own wedding day, I asked Allie to be my Maid of Honor. After the birth of my daughter last year, I asked her to be the godmother of Phebe. Allie and Parker are a match made in heaven! Watching their relationship and love grow has been such a joy. I am so honored to be a part of Allie and Parker’s special day!
Kendall Myrick
Bridesmaid
Hello, my name is Kendall Myrick and I’m one of Allie’s bridesmaids! I used to live in Austin but moved to Colorado Springs in the fall of 2022. I work for a mental health company, offering treatments to those suffering from PTSD, depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. I love my job and I’m very passionate about the work I do! I first met Allie in college in 2016 because our ex’s were best friends. We immediately brunched our way into a beautiful friendship (s/o Shelby Flournoy, she was also in our Brunch Club)! Eventually the 3 of us realized that we liked each other more than the guys, so we split from them and man, was that the best decision we ever made?! After years of going on vacations, girls trips, and many, many brunches, Allie became one of my closest and best friends. Her sense of humor, her kindness, and her grace is truly one-of-a-kind. My favorite memory of her and Parker is when we went floating in the San Marcos river. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so much in one day! That evening, we wrapped it up with some good old fashioned (embarrassing) karaoke. I’m thrilled and honored to be part of their big day, as I watched Allie fall in love with Parker over these years. Parker is a gem and I have no doubt that he will treat her well, take care of her, and support her through whatever life throws at them.
Melody McCaan
Bridesmaid
Hi, my name is Melody McCaan. I was born and raised in Austin, Texas! I have a deep love for marketing, working out, and sushi. Allie and I met in college…10 years ago!! We quickly became best friends and have only grown closer and closer over the years. The first time we had a ‘friend date’ I told her we would be best friends and that we would be in each other's weddings one day - I knew she thought I was crazy during that moment, but my intuition was right! Honestly, my favorite memory of being with Allie and Parker is when they celebrated my birthday with me at the Versace Mansion in Miami. I was utterly grateful to them for traveling and spending that special time with me! I am so excited to go to France and celebrate their wedding day!
Alexandria McDonald
Bridesmaid
My name is Alexandria McDonald. I am a stay at home, homeschool mom of four beautiful daughters with another bundle of joy on the way! Allie and I met in middle school sometime in 2007! We shared some classes together and eventually built a close knit group of friends, we all remain friends with to this day. Allie is the greatest friend a person could ask for. In my opinion, her middle name should have been Loyal because she is the definition of the word. Allie’s fierce faithfulness and love for her friends inspires me. I hope to be as good of a friend as she is to me. I am honored she chose to be my friend; she stuck by my side through all of my strange years and odd phases! There is a specific memory I have of Allie, which I believe depicts her qualities best. One day we were walking home from school and it began pouring down rain. Noticing I didn’t have an umbrella, she offered to share hers with me. The rain began beating down on us so hard that sharing an umbrella soon became too difficult. So Allie gave me her umbrella and made a dart for home, getting soaked in the process but not caring in the least! That is the kind of friend Allie is. She is loyal and selfless. She is a picture of the way Christ calls us to love one another and her love and selflessness radiates God’s Glory. I am so excited for Allie as she begins this new chapter of her life! I know she will make a wonderful and loyal wife to Parker. To God be the glory, great things He has done!
Bronte Underwood
Bridesmaid
Hi! I’m Bronte Underwood, and Allie has chosen me to be one of her bridesmaids. My boyfriend and I live together in Austin, TX where he works in tech and I work in event marketing at a legal services firm. Allie and I met during our years at Texas State University through her Maid of Honor, Shelby Flournoy! In the beginning, I wasn't sure that she liked me very much (I was scared of her), but after hanging out a few times and getting to know her, I found that she's one of the most kind, generous, fun, and loving women I've ever met. We’ve been on multiple trips over the years but no matter where we are I always know we will have a great time when Allie is around, and the same goes for Parker. Since Allie and Parker got together, he's been an amazing and protective partner to Allie, always treating her friends with the same kindness and respect. Even when he is the only guy out with us on a girl’s night, he always makes sure we are safe, keeps us out of trouble, and still manages to have a good time dealing with us. Not to mention, he never even complains. He has some of the most amazing qualities, and somehow makes Allie shine even brighter than she did before. I’m so happy to see these two begin their marriage and I’m absolutely ecstatic I get to stand by their side when it begins! I know their life together will be nothing short of extraordinary.
Hailey Davis
Bridesmaid
Shelby Sherwin
Bridesmaid
Hello, my name is Shelby Joy Sherwin and I am one of Allie’s bridesmaids! I am originally from Newport Beach, California and now live in North Dallas. Allie and I met at Aveda Institute and Arts during aesthetics school. I’ll never forget the day our friendship began, we were both making up hours (shocker) and we started talking about life, old movies, our love for John Wayne and American culture. Allie is an old soul when you’re around her you feel better, uplifted and always in gratitude. At the time the school schedule was very strict so with that I decided to stay in Dallas for the holidays. Allie caught wind that I would not be going home for Christmas and with that being said the Burnett’s opened their home for me to spend Christmas service and dinner with them. It truly meant the world to me and something I can’t express enough gratitude over. During the Christmas season Parker hosted an ugly sweater party in Fort Worth. As I sat back watching these two love birds I knew they were a match made in heaven. I aym beyond excited and honored to be standing beside you both on June 18th, 2023.

Garrett Mays
Best Man
Hi there, my name is Garrett Mays. I am Parker's older brother and best man. I am married to the love of my life, Sarah Grace, we have two cats, Nibbler and Gypsy. We recently bought some property in Cleburne, TX to build our forever home. We both graduated from Stepehen F Austin, I work in engineering at Charles Schwab and do some sports car racing on the side, and Grace is a project manager for Lowe's. Parker and I have always been close, and share many of the same hobbies and interests. From gaming into the late hours of the night with the boys, to discussing advanced aviation and military hardware, tactics, and procurement, we always have something fun to do and talk about. I remember the first thing I thought when I met Allie: she is perfect for Parker, and her brightness and joy makes her the perfect match for him. She lifts him up and makes him as happy as I have ever seen him; their personalities are not just perfect for each other, but seem to be a match made in heaven. I am extremely honored and excited for this opportunity to be my brother's best man. France is going to be such a memorable, good time, especially with all the boys attending with us.

Hi, I'm Kevin Danser. I am Allie's brother-in-law. I married my wife, Elle, on April 15, 2023 where both Allie and Parker were part of the wedding party. Elle and I live in New York City where I work in venture capital. I am originally from California, both Allie and Parker have made trips to Texas feel like home with their generous hospitality.

Jared Benson
Groomsman
Hi, my name's Jared Benson. I live in Euless, Texas with my German Shepherd named Bismarck, and I work in quality control at a clinical laboratory. My biggest hobby is telling myself that I'm going to go to the gym, but instead gaming until its late enough that I'll hate myself in the morning. I have known Parker since we were in preschool, and he has been one of my best friends ever since. Whether it was in class, on the football field, or gaming together online, I've always been thankful when Parker is there, because I know he's going to be a goofy dude and make everything more fun. It's not just Parker's humor though, that makes him one of the best people I know. As we've grown up, it's really become Parker's ambition and work ethic that I've come to admire most. Although it might not seem like a big deal to him, I've learned so much from Parker, and I'm incredibly grateful to have him as a friend. I'm so excited for Parker and Allie's wedding, and I can't wait to celebrate in France with such an amazing couple.
AJ Bogdanoff
Groomsman
Hey I’m AJ. I’m a CPA living in Tulsa Oklahoma. I’ve known Parker since kindergarten and we’ve been friends ever since. He’s a natural leader, whether it’s creating a start up company, hosting crawdad boils, founding the six-pack gang or getting all the kids to cram in the reading barn in kindergarten. Not only is he a leader but is genuine hearted and joy to be around. We’ve had our fair share of early morning workouts to late night theological conversations, and I reflect on those times as being formative in my life. I’m excited to see the life Allie and Parker create together and am honored to be a groomsmen.
