Yes, I'd absolutely allow a wizard to cast while wielding a shield, provided both hands are not needed for gestures.
Some shields are strapped to the arm and though they may have a hand grip, the hand grip can probably be made to come loose, thus freeing the had for movements. Not graceful, but functional.

Also, the wizard will have to buy the shield talent or suffer penalties.
