Firstly, the question of can you or should you are two different things. And definitely before you undertake such a big decision, get to the advice of elders that you know your uncles and aunts, your other cousins. If one parent is being unreasonable, your whole family cannot possibly be unreasonable, somebody's got to be reasonable in that regard. Secondly, from a filter perspective, there's a difference between a man and a woman. technically a man does not need the permission of the parents to get married, whether it's wise or not, is a separate issue.

Otherwise, it is not allowed for her to unilaterally decide to get married without the permission of her wedding.
