Sorry if my ideas are too involved, I do not have a clue what Bunco is and what you do so I am just offering what I think is easy to prepare before hand and pop onto the buffet line last minute.
How about if you make a yummy pot of Chili, and then before they arrive pop it over to the crock pot to keep it warm. Set out side dishes full of scallions, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and tomatoes. Along with baskets of warm crusty rolls, and cornbread. For dessert I would serve warm apple cobbler with ice cream. On the tables for nibbles, candy corn mixed with dry roasted peanuts. Drinks could be chilled cider or ice tea.
Do you have to make the buffet pretty? If so how about some fall leaves that you washed and dried (not to crispy or they will break) sprinkled between the dishes, with a few fall candles burning and little gourds and/or pumpkins. What I love to do is to place a sturdy box or dish upside down and drape napkins or cloth over it. Then sit your basket of rolls on top of that, and place you toppings all around it. It gives you several layers and looks really pretty. Set up your silverware and dishes in baskets if you have them. It will look real fallish.
Hope this helps a bit.
