This vibrant Summer Sun–inspired styled shoot at Whispering Winds in Etowah, Tennessee was designed to celebrate bold color, warm sunshine, and effortless summer romance.

Created as a source of inspiration for couples, this styled shoot brought together a team of wedding professionals to showcase how a summer wedding can feel joyful, elevated, and design-forward. Styled shoots allow us as planners to dream creatively and highlight intentional details that couples can adapt for their own celebrations.

The design for this shoot was centered around a Summer Sun color palette, featuring lively shades of pinks and oranges layered with soft neutrals. The result was a look that felt fresh, playful, and full of warmth—perfectly capturing the feeling of a sun-soaked Tennessee summer.

Whispering Winds provided a beautiful natural backdrop for the design. Its open landscape and airy setting allowed the bright colors to pop while still feeling balanced and refined. From the ceremony styling to the reception details, every element was thoughtfully curated to feel cohesive and inviting.

As the planners, our focus was on creating a seamless visual flow while showing couples how color and patterns can be used confidently without overwhelming the space. The bold palette was softened with intentional styling choices, allowing the design to feel elevated rather than overpowering.

This Summer Sun styled shoot is a reminder that weddings don’t have to be neutral to be timeless. For couples dreaming of a celebration filled with color, warmth, and personality, this Whispering Winds inspiration shows how pinks and oranges can shine beautifully in a summer wedding design.
