Juliet's parents plan for her to marry Paris on Thursday.
Juliet was originally supposed to marry Paris on a Thursday, but she submitted to her fathers will, and married him a day earlier....making it a Wednesday.

He gives Juliet a potion will make her seem to be dead on the wedding day.
The Friar knows that Juliet is already married. He doesn't want to have to refuse to marry her to Paris in a public way. His plan not only helps Juliet, it also gets him off the hook.
Juliet and Friar Laurence planned to get Romeo and Juliet together, but Capulet wanted to marry Paris to Juliet on Thursday. The Friar gave her a potion that would make her seem dead for 42 hours, which she was to take Wednesday night. Friar Lawrence sent a message to Romeo for him to come and get Juliet when she awoke on Friday. But Capulet changed the wedding to Wednesday which meant that Juliet would have to take the potion late on Tuesday night which she did. That meant she awoke Thursday evening. Even if Romeo had received the message to come on Friday it would have been too late.
when she encounters paris and the friar, paris is still under the impression that he is going to marry juliet; however, juliet is already secretly married to romeo. So the dramatic irony is that we know juliet has a plan to get out of marrying paris and that she's already married, but paris does not know any of this
