Our story

Grinvitations is the hatchling of Maritia and Steve, two Vancouver parents who intend to "disrupt" kids' birthday party invitations. Because let's face it, the market is ripe for a bright young startup like us.

Steve, a graphic designer, has been creating fancy "designed" invitations for the kids' birthdays from day one. The idea of building it as an online app that lets other parents easily create equally fancy invitations was planted in our collective mind by a friend back in the Spring of 2012. A few months later we had a rough prototype working and a year or so after that we were ready to bring Grinvitations online.

Kids are special. Birthdays are special. Kids' birthdays are special squared. We hope you enjoy creating invitations for your kids as much as we do.
