Question
Thank you, honorable Rabbi, I am a groom getting married on Hanukkah before sunset, and the honorable Rabbi wrote to me to appoint an agent in the house where I will live before the wedding. On the night after the wedding, we rented a room in a zimmer, and we will arrive at the apartment only the next evening. What should we do?
Answer
In this case, appoint an agent to light the candles in the zimmer you rented, and it is advisable that before the wedding, on the way to the hall, you have a meal in the zimmer so that it is already considered your home, and the agent can light the candles there.
