OUR SWEET MARIE
​
Sweet Marie’s Tea Cottage is named in honor of our grandmother, Marie Louise Iacobucci, a mother of five, a “Gramsy” to thirteen grandchildren, and “Nonni” to six great-grandchildren. Marie was the heart of our family, every bit as sweet as her name. Her warmth, charm, and love for life’s simple pleasures inspired the creation of our tea cottage, a place where guests are welcomed with the same care and kindness she so generously shared.
Growing up, Sunday afternoons were often spent around Marie’s kitchen table, singing songs from generations past and lingering over a warm cup of tea. The simplicity of those afternoons, the kind you only come to recognize as extraordinary with time, continues to shape the experience we create for every guest. We honor her by leading with grace, compassion, and gratitude for every moment shared around a table.
At Sweet Marie’s, we believe a cup of tea can go a long way. Whether you are here to celebrate, reflect, or simply spend time with the ones you love, we thank you for allowing us and Marie to be part of your story.
OUR TEAM
​
Sweet Marie’s Tea Cottage was founded in 2021 by Marie’s granddaughter, Lindsey Andrews. Alongside her cousin and Marie’s grandson, pantry chef James Corrigan, her sister and private event coordinator, Alyson Carty, and a team of dedicated staff who have become chosen family, they carry forward the care and connection that make Sweet Marie’s feel like home.
