Reception menu

Should I add more or could I get away with less for my reception?  We'll probably have the following to our buffet menu:

Passed hors d'oeuvres
Bruschetta w/sundried tomatoes and boccocini mozzarella cheese
Rosemary chicken breast skewers w/thai peanut sauce
Asian meatballs w/sweet&sour sauce
Display station
Fresh fruits, sliced vegetables with dips, crispy asparagus, and assortment of cheese/crackers and baguettes ??
Dinner
Mixed spring greens salad
Sage and pecan stuffed chicken w/sage &bacon butter sauce
Beef florentine w/gorgonzola cream sauce
Spinach ravioli w/white wine vodka sauce
Rice pilaf or mashed potatoes ?
Grilled Vegetables
Dessert
Cupcake tower or traditional cake?
Dessert platter w/cookies & brownies

    Sounds excellent. I'd want to try it all. =) 

    FWIW, I'd go with mashed potatoes. It'll probably be more popular than the rice pilaf.

    I think it looks yummy and everyone can find something to eat. I'd go with mashed potatoes too. I love rice but I hate rice pilaf and wouldn't touch it. It's normally so dry and just gross.

    This.  Mashed Potatoes seem to hold up really well on buffets.
