It depends on the embassy, some will also interview the petitioner, some won't.

I-130...but I really have no idea I thought maybe those who did the interview might know but thnx anyways :)

Only the Beneficiary is required. However, the spouse may be able to attend but will just be there moral support. Depending on the Consulate sometimes it's just a counter where you walk up and they talk to you. Some others have interview rooms.

Consulate do things differently.... ask your consulate or indicate which one you will be using and others who have been there can tell you...

YMMV
