My next question - is it acceptable to use plastic plates and cutlery or should I use real dish ware? Or some combination of both? I have enough dishes and cutlery to use the real thing, but not everything is a complete match. Dishes are all white, but a couple of different styles. Cutlery is all stainless, but several different designs. I was planning on using good quality paper napkins, though. I don’t have enough cloth napkins for everyone.

Thanks for the great advice so far!

My SIL has some like these:

If you’re a member, Costco also carries them.
