Mine will be in Vancouver and my notice says I'm allowed to bring 2 guests. Those are the words on my notice, second page on "important - please note" section:
"Due to building fire code regulations, there is a maximum of two guests per client."

May be different in Surrey, read the full print to see. Being a work day, I assume many people won't bring the 2 guests.

Mine was in Surrey and I brought 4 guests, my friends and their spouses.
I’m not sure how many guests one can bring, but I think the number has to be minimum and also make sure they arrive early.

There is no mention of guests on my notice of oath from Surrey. I have read it multiple times.

How early should I get there from the time on the notice?

You mention your parents and daughter, you should be fine with 3 guests. Especially if there is nothing written regarding numbers of guests on your notice.

3 is ok, noone would deny parents and daughter to the ceremony. if its more like 25 people, well that might be a little problem..

reaching late is a strict no, but on the other extreme, you dont need to sleep outside the building the earlier night...

give a buffer time of 15-30 mins before the event....
