Long Version (120 words)

Stone House is a private wedding and event venue located in the heart of Nevada City, California's historic downtown. Built in 1857 during the Gold Rush, the building's original stone walls, timber beams, and hand-laid masonry create an atmosphere that no amount of modern construction can replicate. The venue offers seven distinct spaces — The Great Hall, The Showroom (with built-in stage), The Penthouse, The Parlour, The Lounge, The Cavern, and The Courtyard — accommodating everything from two-person elopements to 300-guest celebrations. Stone House's in-house kitchen operates on a strict seed-oil-free philosophy, cooking exclusively with butter, olive oil, tallow, and coconut oil. All menus feature locally sourced, seasonal ingredients from Nevada County farms and Northern California purveyors.

Suitable for feature articles, venue profiles, and press releases.
