Remodel complication - too small opening for refrigerator x-post

We are recessing the fridge into a wall. The space was supposed to be 37" wide, but I got 36.25". I have a CD fridge that I was going to reuse that is 35.5" wide.

Not only do I want space for the current fridge, but I was to make sure I have enough space to upgrade in the future. Is a 36.25" width sufficient for many kinds of counterdepth refrigerators?

To fix this, I would have to pay to demolish and rebuild the wall (that just got built) plus the delay in the project is another expense.

Obviously I am hoping that this won't be an issue....but this is the best time to fix it if I need to.

Thanks in advance!
