Our clients’ experiences speak volumes. Here are just a few words from those who have enjoyed the pinnacle of luxury at our events
Gender Reveal & Other Events - Desch & Yuleesha
Ish from Outlandish is a super-phenomenal human being who has embraced her calling to make families realise their dream events. I’ve never come across someone with more passion and attention to detail, than Ish. She treats every event with the attention it deserves, making every client feel so special during times when hosting such events is normally stressful. Ish hosted two events for me, and both have been spectacular, allowing me to enjoy the planning journey stress-free, knowing Ish will make a plan to create an “outlandish” event, all the time, every time. Together with her husband, they make a dynamic duo, whilst building relationships with their clients that are meaningful. Ish is never shy to provide you with her professional opinion and guidance, and her vision is incomparable. Ish does not create events, she creates memories! Ish hosted our gender reveal at our home, and transformed our home into a magical space, that was unbelievable. I write this review many weeks later, and guests are still talking about how spectacular the day was. From the perfect decor, colour combinations and accessories, to the gourmet food stations, and the professional DJ - words cannot describe how grateful we are to Outlandish for making our event, one to remember. Ish, you are a blessing. Thank you for making our gender reveal so wonderfully memorable. It will always stand out as the highlight of our lives. And we cannot wait to show our little boy the amazing pics of his super special gender reveal. May you always be blessed.

Dear Ish, A huge thank you for accompanying me all the way to the bush to set up my hubby’s 40th superhero party! It was amazing, you surpassed all my expectations and brought the theme to life!
Driving 3 hours with a 2 tier cake and still sacrificing your night to make sure we had great photos - I am so grateful. You helped us create unforgettable memories in a beautiful place!
So lucky to have found you all those years ago... you’ve become one of my dearest friends.

April the 8th 2017 will forever be imprinted on my heart. And this because of your amazing work Ishrat. When I first saw your work on your website, I knew I had found someone with an amazing eye for detail and passion for making people's imagination come to life. I always knew you were going to deliver an amazing baby shower but what I got was far beyond my imagination, it was beyond anything I could ever have imagined. So much so that I was moved to tears (I know, I'm totally emo). You took my ideas and just elevate them to another level. Nothing was done haphazardly, everything was well thought through and just enhanced the elegant white theme that I had given you. From the amazing flower arrangements to the most amazing dessert feature table I and the guests at the shower have ever seen!!! Those giant paper flowers are the most gorgeous things I've ever seen!!! And the treats on the table, the most delicious macaroons and cake we have all ever tasted!!! Oh my the Cake!!! Everywhere you looked on the main table, there was some detail that you pick up! The most impeccable attention to detail I have ever seen. Everyone was really blown away and Rendani (mom-to-be) was completely moved at the beauty of it all. And even today, a week later we all can't stop talking about "Rendi's Epic baby shower!!!!", thanks to you Ishrat. I want to thank you so much for the professionalism and the love put into making my friends baby shower Epic! The passion and the love you have for your work really does come through in the final product. I will definitely use you in the future and in fact am telling everyone I know to use your services too!

1st Birthday Party Owl, Ducks and Teddy Theme
"Firstly, a really big thank you for all of your hard work in getting my little man's 1st birthday looking so awesome! It was such a pleasure to work with you over the many weeks before the big day. One of the best parts was not having to do anything myself on the day- all we had to do was arrive and everything was ready and stunning. Never having to worry and always knowing that you had everything under control was invaluable! It was so helpful to have everything (from the birthday cake and dessert table, to photographer and decor) organised through you. Thank you again for having taken so much time and effort to make his birthday such a success!" - Kat

Chanel Chic Baby Shower
Good morning Ishrat I didn't want to message you over the last two days, the hopes that you have spent them resting and recovering! I didn't want you to suffer cardiac arrest when you saw my name pop up I wanted to thank you again for all your hard work on Saturday. I know how much effort went into the event before we even got to Saturday and for that, and your commitment to our vision on Saturday means more to me than I can say. Thank you for everything and for your lovely positive attitude. Everyone was complimenting Outlandish Events, and I lost count of how many people I have since sent your number to, who want you to plan their events in the future. For me that speaks to the quality of your work and I am so so appreciative. Thank you for giving me such a beautiful baby shower, you pulled it off very well. My mom thought you were so so lovely, and had such good things to say about you I love working with you, I feel we really understand one another and (bonus) You're just a wonderful person! Thank you so much Theodora Tambo

"Hi Ishrat, I wanted to express my gratitude for all the effort you put into planning and executing Arianne’s special day. Time was limited and details sketchy, but you managed to crystallize some ideas into a beautiful setting. Your interpretation of the “diamond and pearls” theme coupled with our pastel colour scheme, was nothing short of “WOW”! Your attention to detail and personal and professional approach was evident throughout. The day was filled with several special moments we will all treasure for years to come. Thank you again for making it possible. Kind regards, Rosa"
