LipLidz was founded in 2011 by Suzanne Gavis, her husband Joe, and their son Hunter with a simple but brilliant idea: to reimagine outdoor drinkware. What began as a creative solution for beach days and poolside cocktails quickly evolved into a full-blown lifestyle brand. With high quality, shatterproof wine glasses, martini and margarita glasses, and beer steins – all designed with practical, drink-through lids – LipLidz became synonymous with carefree moments, laughter among friends, and toasts made under the sun. 

As the business grew, so did its impact. Suzanne built powerful partnerships with luxury resorts, beachside boutiques, wineries, and iconic destinations like The Biltmore. LipLidz wasn’t just a product – it was a lifestyle and at its heart was a family whose spirit touched every glass.  

When Joe became ill and sadly passed away, his presence remained woven into the very essence of LipLidz. Each toast is now more than a simple gesture – it’s a tribute to his memory, to the love and vision he shared with Suzanne, and to the joy they brought to others through their brand.
