Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

If your parent and the girl’s parents agree on the Nikah, then the nikah should be performed. There is no need for a second nikah. The family should be educated on the simplicity and the formalities of nikah.

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Wassalamu Alaykum
