Sunny Whitworth
Owner/Wedding Planner
Sunny Whitworth is the founder, creative director, and planner of Whitworth Weddings. A graduate of the University of Alabama and Zeta Tau Alpha alumna, she began her career at the world-renowned Kleinfeld Bridal in New York City. There, she helped hundreds of brides from around the world find their dream gown, collaborating with leading designers to bring custom creations to life. That experience shaped her eye for design and her deep understanding of what makes each love story unique.
Sunny’s approach blends her background in fashion with an appreciation for thoughtful design and genuine connection. Her aesthetic is minimal, romantic, and classic—defined by clean lines, natural textures, and a sense of effortless elegance.
What truly defines her work, however, is her honesty. Sunny values transparency above all else. She believes in keeping things real—offering guidance rooted in truth and care rather than telling couples what they want to hear.
She takes on each wedding with genuine intention, giving her full heart to every couple she works with and doing everything she can to ensure their day feels like an authentic reflection of who they are.
To Sunny, wedding planning is more than design—it’s devotion. It’s about creating an experience that feels warm, inspired, and meaningful from beginning to end, and crafting a celebration that will be remembered not just for how it looked, but for how it felt.

We recently had the good fortune to work with Sunny for our daughter’s wedding at The Grand Hotel in Point Clear. She made the entire wedding experience so much less stressful and ...
gave us confidence that everything was being well planned and all of the details were being considered. This was so important to us because we were working with her from a long distance because we do not live in the town where the venue is located. Sunny is very organized and was a great communicator. She was very responsive to us and had a wonderful “can do” attitude. We would highly recommend her to others who are searching for a wedding professional who is friendly and a pleasure to work with while at the same time very focused and deliberate. If there were a rating scale from 1-5 for wedding planners we would give Sunny a 10.

My husband Darrin and I used Sunny Whitworth for our destination wedding this September in Pensacola, FL.
We picked her after speaking with several other planners in the area. Sh...
e had a relaxed and professional spirit about her which made the process feel less stressful.
From the very beginning she was organized, over communicative, and extremely knowledgeable. We are not from the area, so we really had to depend on her for a lot of things. She took care of finding local trusted vendors and was always willing to compare pricing and find options within our budget. She took care of all communication between us and the vendors which I appreciated as my husband and I felt overwhelmed as it was. Sunny was so patient with us when we would be indecisive, she would help provide input when we asked, but otherwise she was just there as a support of whatever decision we made.
The day of the wedding, it began to pour down rain and Sunny and our venue worked seamlessly to create a new plan that had us forgetting about the weather all together. She was willing to bend over backwards for anything we needed that day, and she kept everything running on time without making us feel rushed. It felt incredibly seamless, and she was so kind when telling us what was next and where to be which we appreciated. She helped create a beautiful vision for our wedding that fit our budget and had our friends and families so impressed.
I could not recommend Sunny more to anyone looking for a wedding planner. She is organized, knowledgeable, kind, personable, professional, and creative. She is very good at what she does, and I will be forever grateful for her!

Sunny is worth the sun, moon, and stars when it comes to wedding planning. She is so detail oriented and on top of the ball, all while being calm and collected. She made an otherwi...
se overwhelming process smooth and so easy. When my dress tore at the reception: she was there with a stitch gun and back up pins. When I needed decals put on my mirrors the night before the wedding: she did them for me, saying I shouldn’t do anything but rest and relax the night before the wedding. She had every vendor on the same page, and made sure everything went off without a hitch.
My husband, family, and I constantly say that our day was absolutely perfect, and there is no way we could say that without Sunny.
In order of the most important decisions I made about the wedding: My husband, Sunny, my dress. No joke. Please, do yourself a favor and hire Sunny. I swear you won’t regret it.
