David Allman
My wife and I live in the beautiful town of Port Rowan. I'd like to offer my congratulations on dedicating your lives to one another. I believe that the significant events in our lives should be celebrated in ways that reflect our individuality and values, thus allowing us to remember them as both full of joy and personally meaningful. As a retired former broadcaster with CBC Radio, I pride myself on bringing calm, affirming support and acceptance to your wedding day by being easy going, a good listener and very flexible. Weddings, commitment ceremonies, and vow renewals can be personalized in many ways. Your joyful occasion can be formal or informal, short and simple with loved ones in attendance, or family and friends, that special pet, can be involved in any way you choose. Any place chosen, words spoken, or vows taken should reflect the level of spirituality, and the values, of you as a couple.

We want to thank David Allman for officiating our 'Make It Legal' Ceremony on Sunday. David's sincerity, kindness, sense of humor, and understanding made this special moment even more special for Brian and I. We would certainly recommend David for any ceremony, but especially if your circumstances are not typical. Thank you so much, David. August 2024
David Allman was very easy to get a hold of. Which made it very easy to meet one month before the wedding to go over all the details. He was great and so professional. He did a great job of the ceremony and was there well before the ceremony which made us feel great knowing that he was there and we could start in time The entire day was perfect! We would recommend All Seasons weddings to anyone! David was amazing and did a great job! August 2024
I 100 percent recommend David Allman as an officiant. He was amazing and had a great sense of humor. The kids loved him as much as we did. He made our day that much more personable and that much more fun, just what we wanted. July 2024
David Allman went above and beyond to make our day extra special. He added a couple of extra lines which we didn't expect which were perfect, it was like he knew us. He did great with improvising when one of the rings was lost, and once it was found, he blessed it for us like we were just getting married for the first time. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant. David was perfect for us so I can't improve on perfection Thank you so much for making our day better than we expected!!! Jul 2024
David Allman was amazing! He was excellent with communication and very punctual (unlike me, the bride). We were very nervous but David put us all at ease and had us and our guests cracking up during the ceremony. Everyone thought he was fantastic! Jul 2024

It was very easy as we had already seen him perform a service before and liked how he officiated. It was an easy process to book him through all seasons. Once booked he was responsive and very organized. Overall a great choice. Our wedding ceremony was one of our highlights and many people came up to us afterwards saying how much they loved it, including our vows. We also got many compliments about the officiant (David) as he did a great job. Thank you David for everything you did a great job! September 2023
David Allman was an absolute delight to work with from start to finish. From the first time we spoke with him, we knew he was the perfect fit for our wedding. His humour and ability to keep things light and flowing was incredible. We highly recommend him to anyone searching for an officiant! August 2023
Our officiant, David Allman, did an exceptional job officiating our wedding in July 2023. From the very beginning, David was exceptional at communication. He provided us with helpful information about the pre-wedding requirements and gave us many sample vows to choose from. David allowed us to truly customize our ceremony and we were able to take bits and pieces from each sample ceremony to build one that best fit our needs. David met up with us a month before the wedding to get to know us and go over the planning details for the big day. On the day of the ceremony, David arrived early and helped ensure the timing of the ceremony stayed on track. As requested, David made sure the ceremony was short, light and added some welcomed humour. David also allowed us to create our own vows and took the extra step of printing them out for us to have at the altar. David has a voice made for radio and did a great job officiating the wedding. After the ceremony David sent us a follow up email with all next steps outlined. Using All Season Weddings gave us peace of mind, knowing that if something had happened to David that another officiant would be able to fill in at the last minute. Overall, we highly recommend David and All Season Weddings! Sarah & Matt July 2023
David [Allman] was very approachable, friendly, and put everyone at ease. There was a lightness to the ceremony that was relaxing. At the same time, it carried a sense of seriousness of commitment that brought tears to our eyes during our vows. Exactly what we wanted! THANK YOU for being part of a very meaningful occasion for us and our family! Jul 2023

Our officiant, David Allman, did an amazing job from beginning to end. He walked us through every step and was quick to respond if ever we had questions. He was very flexible and worked with us to make the perfect ceremony script. He even helped me incorporate a bit of Portuguese in our script to surprise my husband. He brought humour to the ceremony, making it a perfect balance of romance and joyfulness, which we really appreciated. David made us feel incredibly comfortable and confident throughout the entire process and we loved working with him! Thank you for all your help! It was the best day of our lives. July2023
Mr. Allman impressed us with his calm, engaging and professional charisma while officiating a friend's wedding. After conversing with him, we knew without a doubt, he would be the officiant for ours. His pre-made wedding vow suggestions made it simple and easy to build on and express our vows. David's early arrival on the wedding day allowed him to identify and address the nervousness we where having. His attention to detail and observation, let him understand our issues, and adapt the ceremony to accommodate us, as if it was planned that way from the beginning. Whether injecting light humor or giving advice, his main focus was always on us, the Bride and Groom. Such an amazingly attentive and professional .Individual, with great charisma and the ability to read the room. We were so pleased with his personality. I know he is also the perfect person to officiate any occasion, celebrations of life to births. May 2023
We could not imagine a better fit for an officiant than David Allman. From first email to the day of he was prompt, polite, helpful and genuine. He brought a wonderful sense of humour and a warm presence to our celebration. I think our photo shows just how comfortable David made us feel. We are so grateful.
David Allman was excellent and exceeded our expectations. He was friendly, light-hearted and fun while also professional and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed David and would recommend him. July 2022
We had an absolutely excellent experience having you as our officiant and very much enjoyed the opportunity to meet ahead of time, to discuss the format of the ceremony, and to customize our ceremony to be exactly what we had envisioned. We appreciated the freedom to make everything our own. Thanks so much again! Madisun & Logan
David Allman was wonderful and the ceremony was perfect. David is a wonderful person filled with joy, humor and happiness . Thank you for making our ceremony perfect. October 2021
We got married in Collingwood on Saturday October 2nd. We were overjoyed and very happy with the officiant David Allman! He’s funny, lighthearted and made our ceremony so relaxed. Which was exactly what we wanted. Kind regards Tricia and Daniel
David Allman was all around fantastic. He was on top of all communications from the beginning. He got to the venue before we did. He explained all the processes with the legal stuff and followed up as soon as he sent it off. He was friendly, funny, charming, thoughtful, helpful and professional. We met him for the first time ever about twenty minutes before he married us and it was like he was part of the family. I really can't say enough good things about him. My wife and I have said many times since our wedding that we definitely picked the right officiant. He truly helped to make it a special day. I already have referred a friend for her wedding in October :) Thanks, David! Kyle & Megan August 2021
I just wanted to write to say I’m very happy we chose David Allman to officiate our vowes on Saturday. (July 24, 2021) He was warm and friendly, organized and accommodating. He didn’t even complain about us dragging him out in the rain! He went above and beyond to make our day special. Lori and Jymi
Hello David, Thank you for your services, it was a pleasure having you facilitate our ceremony. Your sense of humor was a perfect touch to the event. You made all my guests feel welcomed as you were very approachable and personable. Mealojean and Chris
David Allman was our officiant on May 29th 2021. David has a very outgoing personality and an amazing radio/audio voice that made it so easy for our live stream guest to listen in. He showed up on time and was well dressed. He made our wedding ceremony so wonderful! He is such a kind person and easy to get ahold of through call, text or email. Whenever we had any questions or concerns he answer back very quickly. Thank you so much David! Keep up the amazing work you do. Highly recommend!!! Teodor & Samantha May 2021
Hi David, Thank you very much for performing our ceremony! We received a lot of positive feedback from our guests about your service and your ability to incorporate humour. We also really appreciated your flexibility with moving our ceremony time so that we could capitalize on that small window of no rain so that we could get married outside. We give you a 10/10! I’ve attached a few pictures for your choosing. Thanks again for all of your help! Take good care! Joelle and Hugh
David Allman was the officiant at our wedding—a small ceremony at my parents' home in the country. We could not have imagined a more perfect ally for our special day. David was warm, convivial, and helped put us at ease—both on the day of the wedding and during our meeting beforehand, where we helped us iron out the many specifics and details about the ceremony. He helpfully provided a number of script options and worked with us to hone in on a tailored version that was unique to us. On the day of our wedding, David was a hit! His easy manner at the altar was appreciated by all our guests and we received many compliments on his delivery and personal touch both during the show and while mingling after the fact. He made several knowing departures from the script which created some wonderful, tension-breaking laughs from all in attendance. Particularly given the challenges of a wedding in the COVID era, we appreciated David's expertise and steady hand on the tiller. We unreservedly recommend David's services. —Mike and Sarah
David Allman was everything we hoped for, on our big day as well as leading up to it. We would definitely recommend him to others. Anson & Lisa August 2020
We highly recommend David Allman as a wedding officiant. He was very helpful and quick to get back to us when we had questions or concerns. He has a comfortable relaxed manner that put us both at ease during the ceremony. He also made a cute certificate for the kids to sign to make them feel included. His speaking manner was excellent and easy to hear and understand. We cannot think of a single thing that he could improve on. Thanks again David for a job well done. Rob and Barb
David Allman did an outstanding job and definitely helped make our ceremony fun and lighthearted. It was an absolute pleasure working with David this past year as you were so friendly, organized and resourceful. We would happily pass along your contact info to our friends and family. From the very bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for helping us through this major milestone in our lives. Kylie, Matt & Duke August 2019
David Allman was a pleasure to work with. He was available to address our questions and was very quick with his email responses. He met with us in person a few weeks before the wedding to review all the final details. He was very informative and professional. David had several templates for the ceremony script and even allowed us to create our own sections of the script. During the ceremony, when our emotions were getting the best of us, David did a wonderful job of keeping the atmosphere light and relaxed. He added in some comic relief which our guests enjoyed. We would definitely recommend David Allman! Trevor & Megan July 2019
David Allman was everything we could've asked for and more. He was sweet, kind and humorous. He helped make a great day even better. Leanne & Sabrina June 2019
David was wonderful and very professional from start to finish! From first communications up until after the wedding day, any questions we had or revisions to the ceremony David was quick to answer and very helpful. He had many great ideas for the ceremony and was very accommodating when we wanted to make it personal. The delivery on the day of was seamless and we had many guests comment on how beautiful the ceremony was. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and are ever thankful for David marrying us! Best day ever!
We chose David Allman to officiate at our beach wedding because I knew that he was a highly spiritual soul with a great sense of humour. He invited us to select vows (from his excellent collection) that resonated with us and made great suggestions on how to make the service run seamlessly. We pieced together words and actions that felt right, and he made it all come to life with compassion and humour. He loves what he does, and our guest loved his intimate, casual and thoughtful delivery. We could not have been more happy unless he had stayed for dinner…he had to run off to work his magic elsewhere.
My wife, Lindsay and I had David officiate our wedding this June. He was a pleasure to work with through out the entire process. Easy to get a hold of, and quick to respond when we had any questions. Preformed the ceremony that we discussed and suited us. We were very happy with his services. Thank you David Lindsay and Dan
We had our beach/cottage wedding on May 27, 2017. I just wanted to say that David Allman did an amazing job! We could not have asked for a better day or ceremony.
