What suit does Paris before Lord Capulet?
Suit here means a request, like a lawsuit, not a set of matching clothes. Paris of course is asking Capulet to marry Juliet. Capulet is at first doubtful but later turns 180 degrees and forces the marriage on Juliet.
What effect might capulets change of plans have on the friars arrangments?
Friar Lawrence had a schedule set up whereby Juliet would take the potion Wednesday night and wake up 42 hours later for Romeo to come and get her, sometime Friday night. Presumably he sent Friar John with that message. But when Capulet set the wedding for Wednesday morning, Juliet had to take the potion on Tuesday night, a day earlier. So it didn't matter that Friar John's message did not get through because Romeo would have come a day too late anyway. However, for some reason, the friar does not seem to be worried that Romeo is not going to be warned to come Thursday to get Juliet.

He was a nobleman, a close relative to the Prince. The Capulets were rich but did not have social standing.
