MARQUETTE, MI - January 22nd, 2026 - As Valentine's Day approaches, the Beacon House, a vital resource for families navigating medical challenges in the Upper Peninsula, is set to host a distinctive and heartwarming fundraiser: 'Bouquets & Bourbon.' The event, scheduled for February 14th, 2026, promises an evening of floral artistry, refined bourbon tasting, and community support, all while directly benefiting the organization's mission to provide comfort and care.

The Beacon House has long served as a refuge for patients and their families who travel to Marquette for essential medical treatment. Often, these individuals are facing significant stress and financial strain, and the Beacon House offers a much-needed haven - providing affordable lodging, nutritious home-cooked meals, and essential support services. This fundraiser is crucial to sustaining these vital programs.

A Unique Blend of Creativity and Celebration

'Bouquets & Bourbon' isn't your typical charity gala. The organizers have crafted a truly unique experience, combining two seemingly disparate elements to create a memorable and engaging evening. Guests will participate in a hands-on floral arranging class led by the experienced professionals at Thrivent Financial. This isn't merely about arranging flowers; it's about learning a new skill, fostering creativity, and enjoying the beauty of natural design. Simultaneously, attendees will be treated to a guided bourbon tasting led by experts from Republic Spirits, a local distillery known for its exceptional craftsmanship and commitment to quality. This tasting will explore the nuances of various bourbons, offering insights into their history, production methods, and flavor profiles.

"We wanted to create something truly special - an event that was both enjoyable and impactful," explains a Beacon House spokesperson. "'Bouquets & Bourbon' gives our supporters a chance to connect with one another, learn something new, and contribute to a very worthy cause. It's a win-win-win."

Supporting a Critical Community Resource

The $75 ticket price represents a significant investment in the Beacon House's ongoing operations. The ticket fee is all-inclusive, covering the floral arranging class, the bourbon tasting experience, delicious appetizers to complement the tasting, and, most importantly, a substantial donation directly to the Beacon House. Every dollar raised will go towards supporting the organization's core mission: providing a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment for those facing medical adversity.

The Beacon House's work is more critical than ever. The Upper Peninsula's geographic isolation often necessitates travel to Marquette for specialized medical care, presenting challenges for families already burdened by illness and uncertainty. The Beacon House steps in to alleviate these hardships, offering a vital lifeline during difficult times. The organization consistently relies on the generosity of the community to maintain its services, and events like 'Bouquets & Bourbon' play a significant role in that sustainability.
