Imrey Yosher 2:198 says that you shouldn’t move a torah for a minyan made specifically for the chasan because it is a disgrace to the torah. Rav Aryeh Lebowitz, in a Ten Minute Halacha, said that we are lenient based on the Rama OC 135 who says that you can move a torah for an adam chashuv, and since the poskim assume that a chasan is compared to a king, so you can move the sefer torah for him. However, the Imrey Yosher says that the Rama specifically means a talmid chachom, not a chasan. | Imrey Yosher 2:198 says that you shouldn’t move a torah for a minyan made specifically for the chasan because it is a disgrace to the torah.
