Does it matter if you don't have an engagement party?

My partner and I got engaged the weekend before Christmas. We both then spent Christmas with our families in separate states and were individually spoilt and fussed over. Is it overly important to have an engagement party as our family and friends are all over the country. Would rather now dive in with wedding planning and save every penny for our wedding...but feeling like we may be missing an important part of being engaged without an engagement party??!

I want to involve my step mum in my wedding, but I'm not sure what to do?

I think it'd be nice to have her as part of the day, as I adore her. My dad is walking me down the aisle, and I don't want to upset my bio mum, but I want to make my step mum feel included as she raised me... thoughts?

how long is it okay to leave guests while having photos?

Hi. I'm getting married on my future in laws property. And I was wondering how long is okay to leave guests while we go away to take photos? It's possibly an hour round trip just to get to and from a location to have photos done.

How can we pull off the perfect surprise wedding?

We have a lot of family drama, a lot of different people trying to take over and be in control and so my partner and I have decided to throw a surprise wedding because we still do really want all the people we love there (rather than eloping). We have already had an engagement party, so we can't pull that trick.. can you give me some advice/options on pulling off the perfect surprise wedding
