Grand Opening Founder Portrait invitation
Put the person behind the business on the cover — a grand opening invitation in black, cream, cobalt and red that sets a likeness of the founder or owner, drawn from one photo, beside a lit storefront, a red satin ribbon and gold scissors ready for the cut.

A large black shape with a curved right edge covers the upper left of the card and holds the whole text column, from “Grand Opening” at the top down to the RSVP line. The rest of the ground is warm cream, and a big red circle is cut off by the top-right corner. In the sample, the founder fills the right side of the card from just under that circle to the bottom edge: long dark waves, gold hoop earrings and a fine gold chain, a red blazer over a black top, arms folded and a steady smile straight at the camera, the pose of a business-magazine profile. Below the text, at the lower left, a storefront with black frames and tall glass windows glows from inside, showing a cobalt armchair under a pendant lamp, open shelves with vases and a leafy plant, and a red-and-blue abstract painting above a white plinth with a black vase. A red satin ribbon sweeps across the lower part of the card in loose curves and curls down across the bottom of the blazer, while a pair of oversized gold scissors, blades open, reaches in from the bottom-left corner over a cobalt curve and a sand-colored band.
The card mixes two finishes. The black field, the red circle, the cobalt curve and the cream ground are flat, poster-like shapes with a faint paper grain, while the storefront, the ribbon's satin sheen, the polished scissors and the portrait are rendered in soft, lifelike light, so the whole thing reads like a magazine cover built around a profile photo rather than an illustrated poster. Black, cream, cobalt and red do almost all the work, with gold kept to the scissors and the sample's jewelry. Cobalt turns up in the studio name, the armchair, the painting and the curve at the bottom; red runs through the circle, the ribbon, the starred rule under the headline and the RSVP line. In the sample, the blazer is the same bright red as the circle and the ribbon, so the founder looks like part of the color scheme. The founder shown is fictional: your version shows a generated likeness of the founder or owner from your photo in that place, with one face on the card, and the matching pieces keep the shapes, ribbon and lettering without any portrait.
“Grand Opening” is stacked on two lines in tall cream serif capitals with crisp thick-and-thin strokes, the largest letters on the card. A thin red rule with a small four-pointed red star at its center leads to “Mira Studio”, the sample business name, in bold cobalt sans-serif capitals spread nearly as wide as the headline. Hairline cream rules, some marked with a small dot, divide the rest of the column like the contents list of a magazine: “Thursday, November 4 · 6 PM” and the sample's street address and city follow in spaced cream sans-serif capitals with little red dots between the parts, then “Meet the founder · Tour the space” in smaller cobalt capitals, and “RSVP by October 28” in red closes the black field just above the storefront roof.
Good for
Where this design fits best.
- A founder opening a studio, boutique or salon with an evening reception for neighbors, clients and friends
- A ribbon-cutting where the owner greets guests at the door and leads tours of the new space
- A one-person practice opening its doors, such as a dental office, physical therapy clinic, design studio or law office
- A small business moving to a new storefront that wants to introduce the face behind the name to the neighborhood
- An opening night with light bites, drinks and a guest book by the door, styled in black, cream, cobalt and red

- Share it as an image or as one link. With Pro RSVP, guests reply from the link in their browser and you see every response in the app.
Good to know
About this template.
Will my invitation look exactly like this one?
It will follow this design's direction: a generated likeness of the founder or owner on the right, a curved black field with “Grand Opening” in cream serif capitals and the business name in cobalt, a large red circle on cream, a lit glass storefront, a red satin ribbon and open gold scissors. Because Inviti generates each invitation with AI from your details, the arrangement and lettering can differ from this sample.
Can the portrait show our whole team, or both co-owners?
No. This design shows a single face, and it needs one personal photo of the founder or owner; Inviti AI won't generate it without one. The founder in the sample is fictional: Inviti AI redraws the right side of the card with the person from your photo in that place, aiming to keep their recognizable features, hair and expression, and keeps the black field, red circle, storefront, ribbon, layout and your wording around them. The result is a generated likeness rather than your photo pasted onto the card, so use one clear, well-lit photo of the founder or owner with nobody else in it; a headshot or a picture taken in the new space works well, as long as the face is easy to see. If two partners run the business, choose the person guests will meet at the door, or use the Editorial Grand Opening design, which has no portrait. Check the face and every line of wording before you share, and ask for a change if something looks off. The matching pieces are graphics only, without the portrait.
How is this different from the Editorial Grand Opening design?
Editorial Grand Opening has no person on it. It is a bold screenprinted poster: a huge black condensed “Grand Opening” headline above two open blue doors, with a red ribbon, angled spotlight beams and confetti, and its supporting lines in small blue and red capitals. This one is built around the person behind the business instead: a likeness of the founder or owner, drawn from your photo, stands beside the details, “Grand Opening” is set in cream serif capitals on a black field, and the opening is told through a lit storefront, a satin ribbon and gold scissors. Pick this one when meeting the owner is part of the invitation, and the other when you'd rather keep the focus on the doors and skip the photo. Mira Studio, the November date and “Meet the founder · Tour the space” are only sample wording here, so a salon, clinic, bakery or new office location fits just as well once you enter your own details.
Can I print it?
Yes. The invitation is designed at 5×7 inches, and the app's print preparation can lay out copies on A4 or US Letter with crop marks. Dark designs print best on matte paper; generate at full resolution rather than the introductory 1K size.
What matching pieces are there?
With Pro you can request matching pieces such as an “Opening night bites” menu card (the sample lists garden crostini, roasted vegetables, chocolate bites and sparkling water), food labels such as “Chocolate bites”, a “Welcome” sign with “Grand opening” and the business name, a milestone sign with “Grand opening”, the business name and the date, a “Cards & gifts” sign, a “Please sign our guest book” sign, a “Notes for” sign with the business name, a “Grand opening” cake topper, “M” initial cupcake toppers, “M” initial banner flags with an empty photo opening, water bottle labels with “Grand opening” and the business name, “A sweet thank you” chocolate bar labels, and “Thank you” cards and tags with the business name, all drawn as graphics without the portrait. Each piece is a separate generation; the full sample set is shown below.
