Wedding day, escorts?

I hope you all understand my question..

Wedding day, is there generally someone who stands at the entrance door of the church, and seats people? Is this just the Best Man?

    So all the groomsmen help out seating people?

    Unless your ceremony space is particularly complicated, guests can figure out how to go find a seat.

    You don't need to have ushers or groomsmen assist guests in finding a seat. If you have programs, you can place them in a basket near the ceremony entrance.

    Groomsmen and ushers are not the same thing.

    Groomsmen are the male equivalent of bridesmaids-they stand with the groom at the altar, and perhaps walk down the aisle.

    Ushers escort guests to seats.

    You are talking about Ushers.  They're usually not really all that useful, as people can generally manage walking and sitting without an escort.
