I would go with simple and elegant, as well as inexpensive. Large flowers, like spider mums, floating in glass bowls, seashells scattered on tables, pretty paper lanterns (I know they have these at Target and Oriental Trading) You can also use tall vases with the glass beads like they have in bags at craft stores, and use flowers from local florist or grocery. Lots of candles; tea lights, votives and some tall holders. You can borrow a lot of these items from friends. How about a big fruit salad or fruit kebabs -also a nice idea for chicken or pork. Salmon salad in fish mold with crackers, or whole salmon, cooked and served cold, rice as a side, or with a stir fry. I guess I have done similar parties before. Everyone had fun.
