Darby Hoover

Owner & Founder
My name is Darby Hoover and I am the founder/owner of Petals & Pearls. I graduated from University of North Texas back in December of 2024 with a degree in Interior Design. I worked for Disney back in January of 2025 and loved that I created magic for those that visited the parks. I wanted to create a business that can always keep that touch of magic in real life. As someone who has recently gotten married I saw this as my opportunity to make the wedding planning process easier and less stressful. I created Petals & Pearls just for that reason.
