Tangerines are currently in season and a holiday punch with that flavor should be spot-on. The San Francisco Chronicle has a recipe for a Tangerine Kiss punch; it uses citrus vodka, campari and a lot of tangerine juice to make what sounds like a light, pleasing cocktail.
Unless you're making wassail, you should keep your punch on ice. Cubes melt too fast, though, so the Kitchn has a simple hack for using Tupperware as ice cube trays. You can even add fruit or flavoring to your ice blocks. And like an iceberg, the larger blocks will melt more slowly over time, leading your punch to remain as you intended it to be.
And finally, a non-drink recommendation. MyPunchbowl is an online invitation service that you should be using instead of Evite. With the Potluck feature, you can ask guests to bring food and show who is bringing what, as well as set it up to allow people to weigh in on the kind of punch they'd want to drink.
