As an addendum, I found that the whole thing got both easier to plan and resulted in much more food when I started making it a pot-luck. When all I have to buy is the chocolate, cream, and soda (and, y'know, paper plates and stuff) it is much cheaper for me, and I find myself inundated with fruit from my guests. Just something to keep in mind.
