Custom glasses would be great - first person that comes to mind for Tiki related graphics is Gene, though I don't know about the cost level or timing - http://www.southpacificpromotions.com/

He and others also do things like custom swizzles, etc. that would be fun. If all those end up being too costly, I've seen people do custom labels for water bottles that might work? There are options on etsy.

Something like Huli Huli chicken would fit if you need more options.

I like Haupia as an easy dessert - you can just make a bunch up in pans and cut into small pieces. Although I bet Shave Ice would be a hit, but probably easiest if there happened to be a local vendor.

There are even Hula halau in Pennsylvania & Kentucky, though it sounds like you may not have time for performances. But a bit of live music as you mentioned would be great.

Christian churches in Hawaii hold luau all the time, and it sounds like your group is respectful. It doesn't have to be a problem.
