The Friar's notion that their marriage might end the feud was a good one, but only if all three of them promptly told their parents. A secret marriage was not going to end the feud. They would probably wait until the marriage was consummated to put it beyond annulment. Had Friar Lawrence showed up on Tuesday and announced to Capulet, along with Juliet, that she was Romeo's wife and would have to travel to Mantua to be with him, Capulet would have raged but that would have been the only chance to end the feud and still keep Romeo and Juliet alive and together.
The facts of Tybalt's death and Romeo's banishment may have made it impossible for Friar Lawrence to try to end the feud by disclosing the marriage. If that was so, he should have prevented the marriage from being consummated.
Throughout the play, we find that Friar Lawrence is weak and unable to stand up and face the music at every point where it might possibly help. Therefore his idea to end the feud by marrying Romeo and Juliet, because it depends on his being able to tell this unpleasant truth to the parents, was unwise.

What critical piece of news does friar Lawrence hear from friar john?
Friar Lawrence sends a letter to Romeo, who is in Mantua, detailing his plan to fake the death of Juliet, and have Romeo bring her to Mantua where they can both live happily ever after. He gives the letter to Friar John, who is supposed to bring the letter to Romeo ASAP. Friar John never makes it to Romeo, because he was quarantined due to an outbreak of the Plague. Therefore, he brought the letter back to Friar Lawrence. This messed up Friar Lawrence' plan, as he had already set it in motion.
