A Historic Estate Wedding Venue
Serving Rochester, NY
Maison Albion is a private 1878 mansion on seven acres in Orleans County, about 40 minutes from downtown Rochester — the closest of Western New York's private-estate venues to Monroe County. One wedding a day, complete vendor freedom, and seven distinct spaces, from the Titanic-inspired Ballroom to the Secret Garden's wisteria-draped 1838 barn-stone foundations.
If you've toured Rochester-area barn venues and wanted more architectural drama, Maison Albion's Ballroom and gardens are built for that.
