Washing Towels During the Seven Blessings Days

Question

Is it permissible for a bride or groom to wash towels during the seven blessings days?

Answer

Hello,

The rabbis equate the prohibition of work during the seven blessings days to the laws of Chol HaMoed. 

In the laws of Chol HaMoed, it is explained that items that get dirty quickly, such as towels, are permitted to be washed.
