Chapter 5, Mishna 1

A woman does not acquire the full rights to her marriage contract upon betrothal, but rather only when fully married. What if she reaches the wedding canopy, but her husband dies before they consummate their union on the wedding night? Couples should only make love in the dark. Which rights granted in her marriage contract may a wife waive? What must a couple do if their marriage contract becomes lost?
