Now, I've also invited people that are more of a partying bunch. I don't want to tell my crazier friends to change the way they act for this party but don't want my crush to get the wrong impression of me. How do I ensure that both he, the church friends and the other guests enjoy themselves? Or am I just psyching myself out?

If you are uptight and nervous you are going to make others feel uncomfortable which may lead to them not having a good time. So first thing's first, you need to chill out and have fun at this party and quit worrying so much.As for your friends "embarrasing" you, if this crush of yours is worth your time he will not judge you or be turned off because of your friends (unless they are really heinous, of course). He has got to accept your friends, period. You like your friends and they are a part of your life so if he respects you and likes you he will respect them and like them too. If he doesn't like your friends that's his problem not yours. So relax, have fun and hope your party is a success.

Do you not want this crush to like you for who you are? If you are comfortable with your friends, and appreciate your friends, then do you not wish to have a boyfriend who also accepts them?
Let your crush meet your friends, and see what happens. Just make sure you treat him nicely and I don't think whatever your friends do will matter much. If you act embarrassed on behalf of your friends it might send out the wrong impression too. And you never know, maybe he's a type of person who will enjoy your friends company as well.
Just relax, enjoy the party, and see how things go. Let your friends be themselves, and find a boyfriend who loves you just the way you are, with crazy friends and all. After all they're not criminals, are they?
