Seating charts or escort cards aren't commonly used in Singaporean weddings - couples usually enlist the help of one or two of their wedding party to be stationed at the reception table where guests sign the guestbook, present their wedding gifts or ang pows, and they'll be guided to their allocated table.

While they're not necessary, they'll make great additions to your wedding theme (if you've got one), and make wonderful photo ops. See what we mean in the gallery.
