Hello, Mr. Brown.

http://www.wcax.com/Global/story.asp?S=1855505
How many days in advance of the ceremony should you arrive?

Would it be possible to say the same thing as the above without using "in advance"?
What would you say instead?

Thanks a lot,

Mimi

I might ask, "How many days 'before' the ceremony should I/you arrive?"
