Do you mean you messed up because of not cooking the food right, or you messed up because the menu wasn't balanced? I like most of your menu. It has nice balances of colors and flavors. If it was me, I would probably not do the spiced chicken. My first thought is that two poultry dishes can be redundant. I also feel like the spiced chicken might not have the best taste to compliment the other foods you mention.
Since you have 6 people, Cornish game hens make an elegant presentation. I like to make them with a little stuffing (I like wild rice and grapes). I glaze them with apricot jelly during the last 20 minutes or so of the baking. They make an very nice presentation on a large platter (silver platter, maybe?) with some grapes on the platter as well.
