After Celebrity Stylist Tara Swennen wed Husband, Craig in the British Virgin Islands (Photos Below), Dear Friend Chelsea and I attended her Post Nuptial Reception back in California. What a Evening as newly wed romance was in the air. The reception was held on the grounds of an adorable Estate in Los Angeles.
