Whatever you have heard is not right. Walimah is sunnah in any case, whether one does intercourse or not.
(2) No. It is haram to do intercourse while the wife is in menstruation, as it has been mentioned in the Quran:
واعتزلوا النساء فی المحیض (الآیۃ)
Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
Darul Ifta,
Darul Uloom Deoband
