Just because this friend of your's is was born into an Orthodox family does not necessarily mean s/he is strict.
Basically it all depends on who will be at this party, will there be alcohol there, etc.?
A good way to test these things - whether or not they're kosher - is to ask yourself "can I make the sign of the Cross and pray before doing this."
If you cannot Cross yourself and say "In the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, One God. Amen" before you do something; then you probably shouldn't be doing it.
