I suggest going the simple route.
Buy ice cream and all types of toppings, caramel, hot fudge, chopped nuts, strawberries, whipped cream, etc.
Maybe have some warm molten brownies. Your guests can top with ice cream and hot fudge. Or whatever they like
A plain cake to make strawberry shortcake.
Bananas for banana splits
Warm apple pie with cinnamon ice cream
Maybe some alcohol to make frozen beverages
Root beer floats
Old Fashioned ice cream sodas.
The possibilities are endless.

All of this sounds good and I would add:
Melons either sliced or chunks
A berry medley
Home made cookies - chocolate chip is always a hit.
Perhaps making a bourbon cream sauce which would be good over fruit, bread pudding or ice cream.
Recipe for bourbon sauce from Epicurious.
1 stick of butter
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons bourbon
Pinch of salt
Melt butter in sauce pan. Whisk in remaining ingredients. Simmer til it thickens while whisking (about 3 minutes). Serve warm or cool.
