In April 1894, Tsarevich Nicholas travelled to Coburg, Germany to attend the wedding of Ernst Louis of Hesse-Darmstadt to their mutual cousin, Victoria Melita of Edinburgh. Shortly after arriving in Coburg, Nicholas proposed to Alix. However, Alix, who was a devout Lutheran, rejected Nicholas's proposal, as in order to marry the heir to the throne, she would have to convert to Russian Orthodoxy. At the prompting of the kaiser, Nicholas proposed for the second time, and she accepted. The wedding of Nicholas II of Russia to Alexandra Feodorovna (Alix of Hesse) occurred on November 14/26, 1894 at the Grand Church of the Winter Palace.
