Hors deOuvres ideas:
You could do some dips or lay out a really nice cheese plate (not cheddar cheese cubes) with toasted crusty bread.
Baked Brie and fruit
Puff pastry tarts filled with caramelized onions and gouda are super awesome!
Bacon wrapped scallops or shrimp are popular
Gourmet olives, you can even serve these warm

Hope this helps...just keep things as simple as possible!
