Is this enough food? or add another course.

I am looking at the menu for my reception and I am not sure if I should add another course.

So far we have:

From 5pm on -Selection of hot and cold hors d'ouvres. (passed) (candy bar opens now too)

Dinner at 6pm
1st Pasta
2nd Main (Stuffed chicken, roasted potato, veggies) (vegan option for my vegan guest)
3rd Salad (served during entree--I am going to ask to change the order but it's this way for now)
4th Dessert (apple tart with ice cream)

At 11:00 we will have a selection of cakes, pastries, fruit, pizzas, and either a sundae bar or fresh waffles with fruit sauce. (also the wedding cake)

I am not sure if this will be enough food. Any idea? I still have lots of time to change things around but I would like the opinions of other people first.

EDIT: My family likes to eat so I would rather everyone was stuffed than had to get take-out on the way home.

    i think you are good

    I am having heritage tables late at night I am 50/50 Irish/Italian my FI is 50/50 Slovak/German so we are putting pictures of our grandparents and parents out along with late night heritage snack like Sicilian pizza, canolli's, coffee and Baily’s ect.  I think your menu sound like enough food but the fact that you are doing pizza along with your deserts is a great way to make sure that people eat enough :) 

    A wedding is a party, not a performance. If at the end of the day you are married to the one you love, then everything went perfectly.

    Thanks to everyone! I feel better about it now. I am open to adding another course but it would make things a lot tighter with money. So this is great.
