I know one nurseryman-- Connor Shaw of Possibility Place Nursery in Monee IL.-- who believes Oaks do better in the close company of other Oaks. I'm not sure this principle applies to another genus like Prunus.

Morning and late afternoon sun is not the same thing as mid-day sun. I would consider the exposure you describe partial-shade, and would plant something else that tolerates partial shade better than a Weeping Cherry.
