Which forms needed to apply for green card. Change from F1.

Hello, first I want to thank everyone who read my post and answer my question.

I have been in the States for 4.5 years on F1 student visa and I am going to graduate in May. So my visa will expire soon.

My fiance is an american citizen, and we are going to get married this Friday and planning to apply for green card for me.

I have gone through many different websites to look for instructions, but got very confused.

I know we need to File Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, and Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status. But what else? Some websites say we need to submit 4 more forms, and I am just really lost.

One more question is that I plan to get an internship around early June, but I can't work for companies unless I have work authorization. One website said that I can request for work authorization when I apply for green card, but how? Do I need to submit a form for it as well?

Sorry for so many questions, but thanks a lot for helping.
