Perry John Poussard, Jr. was born and raised in the New Orleans metro area of Louisiana. Perry was very fortunate to grow up knowing many generations of his family tree, especially being a part of five living generations on both sides of his family when he was born. This large and close-knit family unit taught Perry much about the family spirit and why family is so important in life.

Perry is grateful to his Mom, Theresa, and Dad, Perry, Sr., for all they've instilled in him in regards to faith, spirituality, and dedicated love. They've recently celebrated 30 years of married life, and Perry can't wait to one day celebrate the same. Perry has three siblings - Mark, Michael (deceased), and Danielle - with whom he can't wait to share this special day.

Perry graduated from Louisiana State University with a General Studies degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with minors in Computer/Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, and Theatre. Perry now works in the arts as an actor, singer, manager, casting director/agent, and producer. He also performs various roles for multiple entrepreneurial endeavors, ranging from Audio-Visual & Computer Services to Event/Organization Management.

Perry has learned so much from so many, especially friends he's met through Gospel Roads, various Leadership Retreats, and multiple performance roles/venues.

Perry looks forward to sharing this special occasion with many of these individuals who have helped shape his life and brought him to this special place. 

Henry Walcott Farnam IV is proud to be the fifth generation of "Henry Farnam's" to carry that illustrious name; although he often finds it funny when his great grandfather and great great grandfather have a more prominent place on a google search than he does! Of course, such is to be expected when you're a direct descendent of a famed railroad owner and philanthropist who is credited with building the railroad that would connect New York and Chicago, the first bridge across the Mississippi River, and, of course, a little University that he brought to prominence in the mid-1800's that some of you may have heard of - Yale University. So needless to say, Henry has quite a namesake to live up to!

To that end, Henry began his life growing up in a small hamlet just south of Rochester, New York, and summers with his Grandmother Farnam in Madison, Connecticut, where Henry began dreaming of a career as a performer. He quickly moved to New York City, where he got his first professional acting jobs, and eventually found himself with recording contract that would produce his first series of recordings. He then moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, where he would again do a great deal of theatre, and produce his next full length CD Release ("Tribute"). The next stop on Henry's journey was Los Angeles, where he released his next CD ("Fall Over You"), and began doing concerts in the L.A. area, beginning with his CD Release Concert at the legendary Sunset Strip "Key Club". Henry also kept up his work as an actor, and during the Los Angeles years, had the great honor of dancing in a movie musical with Debbie Reynolds ("These Old Broads"), as well as spending two years in the cast of TV's "Star Trek: Enterprise". 

During this period, Henry also began writing, and it wasn't long before his first full legnth movie musical was in front of the cameras, as "Eclipse of the Heart" (featuring the music of Meat Loaf and Bonnie Tyler) began production in Los Angeles. Henry continues to write and has since written a script for another music legend: Donna Summer, as well as a number of film and television series scripts.

One of the most important parts of Henry's life, has been his incredibly close knit family. He's grateful to his mother, Bonnie, for teaching him compassion and kindness; to his father, Henry, for teaching him honor and humor; his beautiful sister, Katie, for teaching him to not take himself too too seriously; and most especially to Katie for providing him with the most beautiful nephew and niece ever to walk the earth, Jonah and Emma Kate (who will be Ring Bearer and Flower Girl at the wedding!). Henry is also grateful to others in his close knit family, most especially, his Aunt Diane Tilghman, who taught him about strength and tenacity (consequently, the latter being the name of his production company). Henry's also eternally grateful to the extended "family" who have become an important part of his life over the years, including Jan Smith (his "second Mom"), Lucia Keeler ("an adopted Mom"), and the wonderful Mike and Marion Westmore (his "West Coast Mom and Dad"), who have been a support structure in his life that makes him feel eternally blessed. Henry is excited that he and Perry will be honoring those people mentioned above, during the ceremony, for being such an influence and strength in his life as "Surrogate Parents".

Henry will write more about the very special people in his life who will make up his wedding party on the "Wedding Party" page, as each one holds a very special place in his heart and in his life, and will be standing up with him on the most special day of his life, as he marries his one true love, Perry. And no biography about Henry would be complete without a mention of this amazing man who he now shares his life with, and who he can't wait to be married to. Henry dedicates the remainder of his life to earning the privilege of continuing to share a life with the wonderful Perry Poussard, Jr.
