depends on when the AOS is filed, but typically receive EAD 90 to 110 days after filing.

So, if you were thinking about a calendar and list of things to do, I'll posit (in order):

1. get to USA

2. 2 weeks after arrival go get a SSN at a SSA office

3. get married before the 90 day window expires

4. file the AOS set

If you really push it, Arrive in US, get married, walk the certificate to the clerk and obtain certified copies the same day (not available everywhere), mail completed AOS packet with marriage certificate that day. Wait 60-90 days and have EAD. Apply for the social security number somewhere after one week of arrival but prior to 2 weeks prior to I-94 expiring. And don't forget the driver's license (area specific).

You do not have to do the I-765 or I-131 if you don't want to, they are optional forms ... and FREE to file.

since the optional forms are fee to file,

you should overcome the inertia and fill out the optional forms.

Inertia sucks.
