My Family

I was born and raised in Miami, Florida with summers spent on the coast of North Carolina. Currently, my parents, Gary and Deborra Forehand, live in Virginia. I am the oldest of three children. I have two younger brothers, Daniel and Eduard. Danny lives in Virginia and Eddie just got a contract with a dance company in South Carolina. While growing up, my Grandmother, called Gran, taught me the beauty of being feminine. She had a knack to do just about anything from cooking, sewing, and decorating to applying make-up, dressing, and hair styling. She and my mother have been a great influence on my passions and talents.

I am married to the most wonderful Irish Rogue in the world…Michael Deegan! See highlights of our wedding! He has been my everything! He comes from a large Catholic family of 8! (we will not be following in his parent’s footsteps!!!) Michael is the most masculine creature on earth and he is a constant surprise! Together, we raise three children. My two girls, Deborra and Emma - ages 10 and 6, have brought the most joy to my life. It’s been fun watching them grow up and see them have personalities and styles all their own! I gave birth to our first son, Michael Rian on November 24th. Finally, A Boy!!!

My Career

Up until last July, I had a career in the wedding business. I started out as a wedding coordinator with a family business my mother and I started. It was called The Return of Romance. We specialized in everything from Old Fashioned Bridal Showers to The Royal Renaissance Wedding! It was fun, but a lot of work! I eventually turned toward the catering part of the business and became a Social Event Coordinator for our local Marriott Hotel. I assisted brides in planning their wedding receptions. It was a hectic job but holds a great reward when you see the happy couple enter into the ballroom for the first time. VIEW MY RESUME

Mike took an early retirement from Miami Dade County and we have moved to Carteret County, North Carolina!
