<<  Any suggestions? I've considered waivers, I've thought about not 
      charging the couple so that I'm not actually "catering." I just want 
      to cook this meal because I think it will be a blast. What have any of 
      you done in this situation?

Have you checked with your insurance agent to see if your personal liability
policy will cover you if you do the event as a favor and only charge for the
cost of the food?  Your friends may still want to give you a little something
as a gift for your time.  That is how I handled a similar situation prior to
starting my personal chef business.

Another thing you may wish to consider is that if you charge for your services
you may have to have a caterer's license in your state.  If someone gets sick,
you  may have the double whammy of your insurance not covering a business
related claim, and having the Health Department knocking at your door.
