Escort Cards?! Need so much help!

Alrighty so I've been meaning to make this post for a while. We have 3 entree options and 200 guests so assigned seats are required (I wanted them anyways). WEIRD, but I have NEVER been to a wedding that had assigned seats. So I am so confused how they work! 1. Do specific seats have to be assigned,...

Alrighty so I've been meaning to make this post for a while. We have 3 entree options and 200 guests so assigned seats are required (I wanted them anyways). WEIRD, but I have NEVER been to a wedding that had assigned seats. So I am so confused how they work!

1. Do specific seats have to be assigned, or just tables?

2. It confuses me that on pinterest and stuff, there are sometimes boards with table 1 then list all the people, etc. and sometimes there are cards laid out in alphabetical order. What is the difference?

3. If you use a board and not cards, are their names also at their actual plate on a little paper?

4. Do couples names go on 1 card or do they each get their own?

5. My coordinator suggested having the escort cards be attached to a little favor. She suggested apples but I am not feeling that. I was thinking those little cream puffs with a a toothpick sticking out holding up a little card with the name? Any other ideas?

    Lol Matt not usually. However, thinking about how I will feel on my wedding day looking at this man that I cherish and adore and respect so freaking much makes me all emotional. Seeing people's BAMs has been preparing me for my own day I guess lol. Hopefully I get it all out now and don't choke on my vows or ruin my makeup on the actual wedding day!

    This was so helpful! I just got an email from our caterer today that we will have to have a colored sticker on each place card indicating their meat choice. I wasn't even planning on doing place cards, just escort cards. I'm hoping I can do a different type of shell for each instead of a colored sticker. The picture is what I was planning on but now that might have to change.
