On 3 January 1886 Alice Stern married the banker Michael Frank. Their love match defied many traditions. Alice did not marry into another established middle-class Jewish family from Frankfurt. Instead she made her own choice to marry a man who had moved to Frankfurt from Landau in the Palatinate only six years before. Moreover, her wedding menu was not in accordance with the traditions of Jewish cuisine.
