Star Treatment founder Michelle Rowland has worked in the wedding industry for more than 13 years.

Michelle, a happily married mother of two, is passionate about her work. She loves people and loves making people happy. She enjoys working hard to fulfill the visions and dreams of her brides and grooms.

The idea for Star Treatment grew as Michelle planned her own wedding eight years ago.

As she set about creating her perfect day, Michelle wished she could have enlisted the help of an extra pair of hands. A perfectionist with an eye for detail, Michelle quickly realised that being the bride meant she couldn't be in two places at once.

Michelle saw the need for a wedding coordination service offering exactly what she wanted: high quality, dedicated and passionate professionalism at a price that is affordable and within reach to all brides, not just the rich and famous.

Michelle brings to Star Treatment her talents as an award-winning nail technician and make-up artist. Michelle trained at the prestigious Australasian College Broadway. After graduating from her first make-up course, she won a $7,000 scholarship for another three months of full-time study in make-up artistry.

Among her successes, Michelle won the Australasian Fingernail Competition. She has been an on-air wedding expert at 2GB, a guest speaker on make-up application techniques for a national cosmetic company and a make-up artist to elite dancers at the Sydney Opera House.

Michelle, too, is a dancer. She performed in the Opening and Closing ceremonies at the Sydney 2000 Olympics. She has danced at Australia's Wonderland, the Sydney Royal Easter Show, international Rugby League matches, State of Origin games, nine Rugby League grand finals and numerous corporate events. She also twice travelled to the United States on dance tours.

Michelle draws on this creative background in the performing arts for inspiration in helping to create dream weddings. She understands that every couple should be able to enjoy their own special day. And she believes every bride truly deserves the Star Treatment.
