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 can't decide how to decorate my reception venue, my theme is navy and peach.

How to ask for Wishing Well after invites were sent out

Hi all, I'm having a destination wedding and didn't think about a wishing well when I sent out the invite. Is it too late to organise a wishing well and inform guests now? Or is it too rude considering guests are paying for their own flights and accom. How do I go about it in a nice way without sounding rude?

Are wedding garters still a thing?

Do people still wear these on their wedding day? I'm not sure if they're comfortable or not.. and do people still do the thing at the reception where the groom rips it off with his teeth?
