A groom is exempt from reciting Shema on the first night, until Saturday night
if he has not done the deed.
A story about Rabban Gamliel
who recited [Shema] on the first night that he got married.

He said to them:
I will not listen to you, to remove the kingdom of heaven from me for even one hour.
