Historical Notes[]
- On 16 November 1671, Philippe and Elizabeth Charlotte were married by proxy at Metz.
- By prearrangement, after leaving her father's realm but prior to arriving in France, Elizabeth formally converted to Roman Catholicism.
- The arranged marriage was conceived by the bride's aunt, Anna Gonzaga, a close friend of her future husband and his deceased first wife, who negotiated the marriage contract, including the secret Catholic instruction and subsequent public conversion of the fiancée.
