Question

Where should a groom getting married during Hanukkah light the Hanukkah candles?

Answer

If the chuppah is after sunset, he should light the candles at his parents' home himself, and if he is Sephardic, he should participate with his parents. If the chuppah is before sunset, he should appoint an agent in the house where he will sleep after the wedding. If it is not possible to appoint an agent, he should light the candles himself when he arrives home after the wedding, until dawn, and appoint a guard to remind him to light so that he can eat at the wedding.
