Pre-wedding Parties

Introducing our families

My fiance and I are hosting a barbecue at the end of this month to introduce our families. It will be casual in a backyard setting. I plan on renting 2 long banquet tables, chairs and linens for seating, and an additional table for a buffet. We'll probably grill beforehand and have a spread of burgers, potato salad, vegetable/fruit trays. We'll also have beer, champagne, and maybe 1 mixed cocktail. Any suggestions on decorations/menu/activities?
We've been together 5 years and his family has met my mom and 2 youngest siblings once. My parents are divorced and will both attend with their significant others, and his mom is a little cuckoo. I want to prevent any awkwardness and have this go as smoothly as possible. Thanks for any advice!
