			I am new to this game and trying to play with friends. How can we teleport our group together to do low level questing? Do we have to reach a certain zone before we can group up?

The only way for players (of any level) to teleport to each other is via use of the Scientist (path) skill Summon Group.  Otherwise, you're just going to have to find each other the old-fashioned way.  If you're still in the first starter area off the arcship (Northern Wilds, Everstar Grove, Crimson Isles, Levian Bay), there should be a teleporter in the first little area where you touched down that will take you to the other starter zone for your faction.
 
You can group up at any level, either by right-clicking a character's target pane (the HP bar that pops up when you click on a unit), or with the chat commands "/join [player name]" and "/invite [player name]".  If one of you is a significantly higher level than the others, you may get a prompt to "mentor" other players.  What this means is that your stats will be scaled down to roughly match those of the group and you will earn additional currency (Renown) while you do so.

You can group up right from the starter ship and see each other provided you are in the same area, the only thing you need to watch out for is if your friends are in the same instance as you.
 
When they join your group request there will be a button on their group window that will tell them to sync to group or something similar if they are in a different instance and that will then teleport them to the party leaders instance.
