Hire a caterer: zuuum, Wayne, Barb, Julia, hahabogus, and Goomba.

Try it myself (with help from others): Curly Sue. This could work,
but I'm not certain I'll have the time or the energy to do it. Also
see the equipment notes below.

Watch out for price: T E. Good point, but I think I'll be able to get
a decent deal from Zach (I misspelled it in the original post, I
think.)

Mix and match: -L. :. Another decent idea. I could make some things,
and hire out others in consultation with the professional help.

Haha's Julia's admonition about other equipment (portapotties?) is
well taken. I don't have the serving bowls for that much potato
salad, for example.

So... I'll get in touch with Zach.

I really appreciate the advice, everybody
