Need a houswarming menu....

What should I serve?
About 16 people.
saturday night at 7:30pm
Should I serve dinner?

appetizers:
pigs in blanket
spinach dip (in bread bowl)
onion or ranch dip (cut veggies)
hot mexican dip
hot crab meat dip
chips
crackets and cheese

Do I need to make "Main dish"?
baked ziti
italian bread

What else? We don't have a huge kitchen, place. I was not going to do dinner to begin with. But figured something in case people were hungry.

I wouldn't make a main dish. Make it more like a cocktail party. I had one a few weeks ago and staggered the courses of apps I had made. I started out with Cheese, proscuitto, salamis and crackers plus, I made a white bean dip and a hot taco dip. Then after about an hours or so I put out cocktail shrimp, mini crab cakes, stuffed mushrooms and a carmelized onion cheese tart I had made. Then for desserts I bought some cookies and cream puffs, made some brownies and my girlfriend brought pastries and we also made expressos. I had 14 people and it worked out well.

ETA - I started mine gathering around 6:30.
