Yes, there were two angels present. Matthew mentions one angel speaking but does not say there was only one. John says that two were present. As Norman Geisler says, "John says there were two and wherever there are two there is also one; it never fails! The critic has to add the word 'only' to Matthew's account in order to make it contradictory." [When Critics Ask (Grand Rapids: Baker Books, 1999), p. 365]
