if u will to ask ur hotel, i think they will advise u too.. actually for ur parents, they shd be understding enuf tat u r a daughter n once married, u shd be at the other table with ur in-law n husband.. VIP tables are meant for parents n grandparents. i suggest u put all ur siblings on a normal table next to ur parent VIP table and have ur maternal VIP table to be all elderly. however, if reali needs siblings prority, it shd goes to brothers n sister-in-laws then follow by sis. if ur sibling are nt married, then u dun have to bother to put their partners at VIP tables, so keeping it for elderly to me is the safest unless u have only 1 sibling with partner but if u have alot, i dun thk u can cater to all. (wat i mention is traditionally is like tat, but indv preferences as nowadays all are modern brides) i dun think any hotel will set 3 VIP tables... but can always try to ask .. no harm.. as for xi bing, yes it is still tradition.. but for mine i keep it only close relative.. cant afford to give all the relatives.. tis realy depends on u n ur parents...
