It doesn't matter where you get married.  If you apply outland, you could have PR in maybe 7 months. 

It does not matter if the spouse is PR or citizen except if you and the spouse are not living in Canada.  Only a citizen can start a spousal sponsorship from outside Canada.  A PR has to be living in Canada when applying for sponsorship of their spouse.

As soon as you are PR and can prove and you have enough income, you can apply to sponsor your mother.  After you send in the sponsorship, it takes 27 months to approve sponsorship, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/canada/process-in.asp#sponsorship and after that it goes to your mothers country and takes another few months, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/international/08-fc-parents.asp

You can enter Canada as a visitor any time you want.

Time for the outland applicaiton is split into 2 parts, part 1 is approval of the sponsor and is processed in Canada and takes 31 days according to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/canada/process-in.asp#sponsorship and part 2 is processing your file at your visa office, in your case in Buffalo and takes 3-9 months according to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/international/05-fc-spouses.asp#west

You add them together, yes.  With an outland application, you have a separate sponsorship stage processed in Canada and after that the file goes to the visa office.  There is no inland application for parents, just outland.
