It is mandatory to inform IRCC that you got married. If you don't inform them, you will be committing misrepresentation and can have your PR cancelled entirely.

Adding a spouse is a simple enough thing. Just use the IRCC webform to tell them you got married. They will ask for your marriage certificate, wife's medical and PCC, and that's it. It adds a few months, but there's no other drawback.. and remember, you have to tell them.

You should inform CIC asap and follow what 21Goose advised.

You have to tell them before you land. You cannot land on the CoPR you get on the basis of a single person's application.

They won't care about the delay. Besides you have no choice - you have to tell them. If you don't tell them, you will not be allowed to get PR.

I already told you how to contact them. It will add 3-4 months to your process. You should have informed them earlier, but now you need to inform them as soon as you can. It's unlikely that you will be able to complete everything before 31 Aug.

You should also apply for a Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) to ensure that you can keep working after 31 Aug. You have to apply for this before your current work permit expires.
