Milchig buffet. And lots of cold drinks. Fast is over 9ish so everybody just wants to eat. Maybe bagels, lox etc wiyh one hot dish eg egglant parmesan

I cannot think of anything I would want to do less than attend a sheva brachot after 17 b'tammuz. Are you sure the chattan and kallah are up for it? Since you haven't started planning maybe you can offer them an out.
If not, I would do lots of bread. A nice thick soup. A fish and a pasta or rice or mashed potatoes. Go light on the salads. People are looking for carbs after a fast.

I would do rolls & salad at every setting. A veggie soup & salmon with mashed potatoes as a side dish, a fruit cup for dessert (watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, grapes...) Keep it light & hearty.

Agreed that this doesn’t sound like something most people would enjoy
I would do soup, bagels, cream cheese, lox, sliced veggies, one salad and one hot dish.

I think buffet would be best in this situation. But have something set at each place as well, besides the buffet, like a roll of some sort and some sort of plated starter.
