Nothing whatever, if you need to ask this question, go to a bricks and mortar shop - especially for something as critical as your wedding.,

Not sure if there's one in Hyderabad, but I had a few suits tailored at Syed Bawkher in Chennai and they were quite nice.

They have a rather eclectic collection of fabrics (English and Italian), usually light and mid weight.

Turnaround time is usually a few weeks, but they can usually expedite if necessary. That usually entails a few iterations (2-5, depending on how much time you have).

I really enjoyed the experience, and the final product. I have about six suits from them, and I've found that over time, I've gotten really good at getting exactly what I want. Highly recommended.

Syed Bawkher isn't there in Hyderabad :(
How much a decent suit costs over there ?

Any other alternative in Hyderabad?

The cost would really depend on the fabric and your preferences.

Most recently, I had two suits made in mid-weight Loro Piana wool, and with about 5 iterations each.

The other tailor I've had good (but limited) experience with is Reid and Taylor in New Delhi, but once again, not sure if they have a presence in Hyderabad. And that was almost 8 years ago.
