Here's a few more:

Traditional Dry Martini
2oz Gin or Vodka
0.25oz Dry Vermouth
Garnish with a tail onion or green olive

Sapphire Martini
2oz Bombay Sapphire Gin
0.5oz Blue Curacao
Splash of Dry Vermouth
Garnish with a cherry

Grasshopper
1.5oz Creme de Cacao
1.5oz Creme de Menthe

The fun thing about martini parties is being creative. I'd suggest buying the following supplies (money permitting) before the party, and then mixing and matching as you like:

Gin
Vodka
Rum
Vermouth
Cointreau
Triple Sec
Blue Curacao
Peach Schnapps
Creme de Menthe
Creme de Cacao
Melon Liqueur
Orange Juice
Cranberry Juice
Lemons
Limes
Olives
Cherries

Generally, you want to use a larger quantity of one of the stronger liquors as the base (gin, vodka, or rum) and then add smaller amounts of the more fruitier drinks.
