The best part about Brenda Whiteman was everything! She let us have a wedding the way we wanted, which included a rap performance, and she somehow kept it professional throughout all of that. Brenda was a superstar throughout the entire process. Our initial phone call and meeting went very well and we became very comfortable with her immediately. During the rehearsal, she was extremely patient with us as our wedding party was larger than normal, and rounding up 25 people takes a lot of time and patience. During the wedding, she went along with our crazy ideas, spoke very well and clearly, and brought a sense of calm to a stressful day. September 2023

Our ceremony was perfect for us and I loved that Brenda made it work the way we wanted as we were non traditional with no bridal party and my son and father walked me down the isle. We had the wedding that WE as a couple wanted and did not listen to what others wanted us to do which made the day that much more enjoyable. Honestly I can’t think of a single improvement. By far this was the most straightforward experience we could have had with a service and so glad we choose this service as I was initially stressed about an officiant. I can’t say enough wonderful things about Brenda she was a joy to work with. I might be biased a bit seeing she’s in social work type work and so am I which I think made things that much more comfortable for me. I would highly recommend this service to anyone and would even that much more recommend Brenda as an officiant. August 2023

We found the booking process straight forward and user friendly. One of the best things about our wedding was the fact that so many of our loved ones were a part of our day. Brenda Whiteman was amazing to deal with. She went through the entire process with us in a way that made sense and made our big day not seem as nerve wracking. She was quick to ask questions to make sure we understood everything and also to make sure we had the wedding ceremony we wanted. We were lucky to have an officiant that listened to us and valued out opinion, we felt like our ceremony suited our personalities. Brenda was a pivotal part of our wedding and we would highly suggest her to others! Jun 2023

Simple and convenient. Having Brenda write our vows and giving them to us at the alter. It made the day easier for us. Yes of course. The whole process was great. Meeting Brenda in person was essential to establish trust and confidence. I would recommend her to friends and family.

Brenda Whiteman exceeded our expectations with her care, patience and attention to detail. She made The entire process very easy and stress free, even on the most stressful time when we thought our wedding could not continue. She helped make our day run smoothly. She was always very positive and helpful. She gave us lots of options and made all of our interactions upbeat and fun. Lovely experience overall. Brenda was so easy going, offered space for us to make our experience our own and was thorough. Everything was perfect. Based on our experience with Brenda, I would very confidently recommend her to other couples. Aug 2022

Brenda Whiteman is an awesome officiant. We chose to have a very small wedding and we couldn’t have asked for anything more or anyone else on our big day. I would highly recommend Brenda to anyone looking for an officiant. July 2022

Erica & Steven
Brenda Whiteman was spectacular, we couldn't be happier! We requested Brenda a month before our wedding date, after our officiant abruptly quit. We read some great reviews online and were not disappointed! Brenda met with us within a week of our request at her place of business. She was patient and kind in helping us plan our special day and provided us with suggestions wherever we had gaps. The rehearsal dinner and ceremony went just as we planned! We were so grateful Brenda was able to accommodate us on such short notice and we would recommend Brenda to anyone looking for their special day to go smoothly. Her warmth and kindness translated into a wonderful ceremony we couldn’t be happier with her. October 2021

Brenda Whiteman did a fantastic job officiating our wedding. She was so great and easy to work with and didn’t let a little rain phase her or disrupt our ceremony. Several family and friends commented how friendly and wonderful she was. - Ryley & Marita, July 2021

Brenda Whiteman went over and above. She made it personal and warm and loving. All my expectations to the day of my dreams. In these crazy times of Covid, and trying to keep a social distant wedding personal, Brenda made it all happen. Everyone who attended had their own personal positive comments to how well she performed the ceremony. Glen & Nancy August 2020

We had no idea really what we were looking for when we contacted All Season Weddings. We Skyped with Brenda Whiteman and she asked us a lot of questions and helped us decide what style of ceremony would suit us. She was so friendly and sent us some readings so we really didn't have to stress about it. She was perfect on the day and we couldn't have asked for better. Ashton & Johanna Sept 2019

Brenda Whiteman was the officiant at our wedding and we couldn’t be more pleased with our choice! Brenda with her open mind and attitude was perfect for the type of marriage service we were looking for. We really needed a ceremony that combined specific themes and even personalized vows that reflected both of our true selves but did not omit either one of our perspectives. Brenda immediately understood our desires and carefully helped us work through every moment of the ceremony to ensure that even the smallest detail was exactly what we were both comfortable with. She supported us throughout the process and we felt that we could trust her to make our day our own. Brenda has a warm, inviting and professional approach as an officiant and she made our wedding so special. We would definitely recommend her to other couples like us ; who were looking for a personal ceremony that honoured us both. I imagine anyone who chooses to have her as part of one of the most important days of their lives, will not be disappointed! Ola and Dan

Crystal and Colin
As soon as we had our first conversation, Colin and I knew we made an excellent choice to have Brenda officiate our wedding on August 18, 2018. Our meet and greet with Brenda was amazing - we shared stories of our relationship, we expressed our wishes for the ceremony and we reviewed details for the day. With only meeting Brenda for a visit before our wedding weekend, Brenda made us feel incredibly comfortable by her genuine presence and authentic interest in our story. Brenda's commitment and enthusiasm was evident through every email, phone call and multiple changes / revisions to the ceremony outline. Brenda was kind, courteous, on time, respectful and flexible during the rehearsal. Brenda even pulled me aside for a quick moment to look at some outfit choices - so very thoughtful! For our wedding ceremony, Brenda's calm and strong leadership guided us through our dream ceremony! The ceremony went by so quickly and months later only a few memories stand out - I can clearly remember locking eyes with Brenda as I started to tear up during the vows and we both took a deep breath together. What a special moment! Brenda's leadership, gentle approach, and the ability to build rapport and make strong connections makes Brenda an incredible officiant! We were so lucky to have Brenda join our special day. Many thanks, Crystal and Colin

Having an excellent officiant to guide you beautifully through this most memorable and poignant of occasions, is something that will echo through the remainder of life. Brenda Whiteman was perfect for our wedding process from the beginning. Her many questions during the comfortable interview gave us the impression that she was carefully customizing our wedding experience. She communicated with us responsively and clearly, which put us at ease. Her countenance was that of grace and reverence, adding gravitas to the ceremony without being theatrical, or overbearing. We put so much effort into our wedding, preparing for months, restoring a barn, curating everything ourselves for the perfect occasion. Inevitably, one must hand over the reins to the officiant, and to our delight Brenda's poise, wonderful voice, deliberate pacing, and warm expressions completed our experience, joined us together, and we shall never forget her standing with us as we were united. Thank you so much Brenda for creating an incredible ceremonial experience, and one we will always cherish with great fondness and delight. Kind regards, Laura & Mark
