Kuntres Drush Chasunah – includes Chassidic Ma’amorim that were said by the Frierdiker Rebbe in Kislev 1929, at the wedding of his daughter Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka with Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneersohn, later his successor and seventh Nasi of the Chabad dynasty. The anthology was first printed the year that the Ma’amorim were said, in 1939 in Riga.
In honour of the 33rd anniversary of the Rebbe and Rebbetzin, it was reprinted on the 15th of Kislev, 1992. The Kuntress was distributed by the Rebbe on the 17th of Kislev, 1992.
A description written at the time in the "Yoman BiBeit Chayeinu" states: "At the conclusion of the Davening the Rebbe went into his room and at 1:30 came out to distribute the Kuntressim. This time this distribution did not take place downstairs, but rather by the entrance of the Rebbes room. … The door was open, the table and dollars were near the entrance, and he stood and distributed the Kuntress and two-dollar bills for five hours! to men, women and children. The Kuntress has a light blue cover, with quality paper, and it bears the title קונטרס דרושי חתונה. It includes the "Drushei Chatunah" from 1929 and two other Mma’amorim from the Rebbe from 1954 and 1939, that are based on the Ma’amarim from 1929.
