Allan’s Bio:
Allan Burnett is a man who sees a problem and looks for a way to solve it. This observance has lead him to establish many successful businesses. This desire to solve a need was instrumental is causing his “pioneering spirit” to begin the first “all inclusive” wedding chapel in Vancouver. This service has expanded into two other similar corporations. His enthusiasm is contagious and coupled with his friendly and witty manner he offers the Bride and Groom, as well as their guests, a genuine and memorable wedding ceremony. He has surrounded himself with “like minded” people in the expansion of the vision. One of Allan’s greatest passions in life is to build successful marriages and families by encouraging couples to dream big and achieve success in all areas of life.
Named Entrepreneurial Leader in 2007 by Trinity Western University is reflective of his effective leadership being recognized in building both people and businesses. He was part of a team working with young leaders in Mongolia in the rebuilding of their country.
Another passion of Allan’s is Alpha – a dinner/ teaching/discussion course which helps people understand the meaning of Christianity and the significance of Christianity in leading a successful life. Teaching others how to lead “Alpha” has taken Allan as leader of a team to Tanzania, Haiti and Regina, Saskatchewan (teams going to the Dominican Republic).
Together with his wife Betty Ann he has raised four children and currently has three grandchildren. Allan is an accomplished pianist and enjoys golfing, travelling and spending time with his family. As a family they support Coastal Church, Mercy Ministries, Lifeline Haiti, Asian Outreach, and Watoto Children.
