There is no formal Jewish custom, tradition, or law in this regard. But it makes sense in a way, that since the family unit is such an exceptionally strong infrastructure in a Jewish young person's maturation, if the newly-engaged couple are not totally estranged from their parents, then those are the first people they would want to tell.

What is the minimum time interval between 2 sisters weddings?

I would suggest asking your parents if they are helping to pay for it. I know that my parents would not be very happy if my sister and I got married less than a year apart...weddings are expensive! Also, if your sister got married first and it was recently--ask her what she thinks. Your family should be able to tell you better than any stranger. Its your wedding--the most important people in the whole process are your family...so ask them!! :) Congrats
