Your question
Reaching out to ask for your guidance. I'm male living in Tokyo in need of a suit to attend a wedding.
I'd like to purchase one, most likely as is since because I tailoring might take too much time and wedding is soon. Any recommendations? If you know of a good place to rent one that works too.
Also, could anyone share how much it would cost to buy/buy with tailoring/rent?

If you're on a budget, places like Uniqlo or Shimamura(しまむら) work just fine, though sizes can be limited. People don't really scrutinize what brand of formal wear you're wearing at weddings anyway. If you need something quickly, there’s absolutely no problem with going for these affordable brands.
