I think you are asking how far in the future the proposed wedding of Juliet and Paris is from the events in Act IV Scene 1. This is when Juliet comes to the Friar in desperation for advice on how not to commit bigamy. The Friar says "Wednesday is to-morrow" so it's Tuesday and the wedding is to take place on Thursday, the day after tomorrow at the time this scene takes place. Of course when Juliet gets home, her father will reschedule the wedding for Wednesday morning, less than a day after Act IV Scene 1

Capulet promises Paris that Juliet will marry him within three days, despite earlier insisting that Juliet should have a say in her marriage.

Day 1: All of Act 1, starting with the brawl in the morning and Capulet's feast at night. Day 2: Starting at about midnight in Act 2 Scene 1, up to 9 am by Act 2 Scene 4. By Act 3 Scene 1 it is about noon, and Romeo and Juliet are married. Mercutio and Tybalt die in the afternoon and Romeo and Juliet consummate their marriage that night. Just before they do, however, Capulet and Paris have a conversation in Act 3 Scene 3 where Capulet says "What day is this?" and Paris responds "Monday" Day 2 is therefore Monday and the wedding is set for Thursday, which is Day 5. Day 3: Starts in Act 3 Scene 4 at about 6 am when Juliet and Romeo wake up. In Act 4 Scene 2 Capulet changes the wedding to the next morning (i.e. Wednesday).

What was the date of Count Paris's death in Romeo and Juliet in the play?
There are no absolutely clear date markers in the play. We know from Act 1 Scene III that at that point in the play it is "a fortnight and odd days to Lammastide" Lammas is August 1st, so our action commences no later than July 14, and possibly a few days earlier. The deaths of Paris, Romeo and Juliet are therefore around the 18th to 20th of July. The text gives no indication whatsoever about the year.
