He moved the wedding to Wednesday, which certainly affected their plan to have a supper, some guests, a priest and a bridegroom present at it. Who schedules a wedding for tomorrow morning? As for Juliet's plan, it bumped it up a day. This means that even if Romeo had got the letter, the time in it would have been wrong. Friar Lawrence should have picked up the ball here and have stayed with Juliet until she woke. Instead he fumbled it badly.

It makes it impossible. The Friar supposedly has sent word to Romeo on Tuesday to say that Juliet will be waking up sometime on Friday evening. That's based on Juliet taking the potion Wednesday night before the Thursday wedding.

But if the wedding is Wednesday instead of Thursday (which is what happens when Capulet says "I'll have this knot knit up tomorrow morning.") Juliet will be waking up a day too soon. Even if Romeo gets the Friar's message, he will not come in time. The friar should say, when he finds out that Friar John was prevented from giving the message, that it doesn't really matter, but that he has to wait all night in Juliet's tomb because she is going to wake up sometime soon and he cannot be certain when. He doesn't know exactly when Juliet took the potion after all.

The change of the wedding date does not happen in Shakespeare's source; in that poem, the friar writes to Romeus after Juliet is found apparently dead. Shakespeare must have thought this was a way to make the action more urgent and breathless, but he didn't really think it through.

What will happen to Romeo and Juliet?

I don't know what you mean by 'will' (as in future tense), but at the end of the script, Juliet pretends to be dead, her husband, Romeo thinks she is dead and kills himself, and then Juliet wakes up, sees her dead husband, and kills herself. I would then say 'and they lived happily ever after' but unfortunatly, this Shakespeare play has a sad ending.


How does the death of romeo and Juliet effect the feud?

Civil brawls, born of an airy word, seem to happen with little provocation. People assume that what the Capulets do, they do to slight the Montagues and vice versa. Thus Tybalt assumes that Romeo has crashed the party just to "fleer and jest" at the Capulets. He continues to act on that assumption even after Capulet points out to him that Romeo is doing nothing of the kind. Paris also assumes that Romeo must be up to no good in visiting Juliet's tomb, just because he's a Montague. Both of these groundless assumptions lead to fighting and death for those doing the assuming.
