You could organize for the g/f and vegetarian guests to be served as there is only a few of you. ensure the helpers know what's going on and maybe put a different colored ribbon on the relevant chairs or something, (plus a bump)

Chillie Sweet Corn Fritters Hi everyone. What a great thread. (Especially since I am catering for a party next week. ) In my former life ,sigh, I worked for a company that frequently catered for staff functions at great cost. (I paid the accounts) The following two recipes were right up there. Chillie Corn fritters. (Off the Food in a Minute Web site. ) Now don't turn up your noses it is a real winner.
