Yeah, if you are both of legal age and love each other than you should have the right to do what you want. If you are not into big weddings, then you can just go to Vegas or wherever to elope. It's the easiest way.
Once you're married, your family can't do anything about it.
Your family should support you whoever you love, unfortunately, some families are discrimatory and prejudice.

No, you should tell them because they're going to find out, especially if you plan on spending the rest of your life with this man. Are you going to live happilly having to hide it for the rest of your life? Your family isn't the one marrying him/her, you are. Your family is going to be your family no matter what. In ten years from now, they will still be your family. Depending on the reason, give it time. Most families are really overprotective when it comes to marriage. Let them get to know the person and see how well they treat you, then maybe they'll warm up. I wish you luck!!

I don't care what you do either...but... how old are you? How long have you known your fiance? How long have you been engaged?
Before you run away and get married (as romantic as that sounds) marriage can be for a REALLE LONG TIME, if you choose the wrong partner.
Why doesn't your family like your fiance? Your family might know you pretty well adn maybe they are seeing something that you are not. That being said, amybe you see something in your fiance that your family does not see.
It must be worth...at the very least...some discussion.

A big mistake sweety. The importance of family is the core of a happy marriage. You may need mother around when you get pregnant and caring for your child. They can be there for you when financial hardships arise.
You know why they find your fiance unacceptable. Deal with their reasons. Remember you have your truth and they have their truth. You need to deal with their truth.
Just don't rush into anything foolish. The are just wiser than you and being protective. which is OK!

This can be really hard too handle and too deal with. Its for the best that you try too get the relations with your fiance and your family too work out at all costs. Elsewise it can totally destroy the both of you. I can tell you this first hand because it recently just happened too me. My Gf's family did not like me bacause I was simply older than her. Therefore she ran away with me. She had always had a very close knit with her family and this really hurt her in the month too come. Therefore even though I do know that she loved me she still walked out and went back home. Trust me, its for the best that you do all that you can too get them too accept him. Its always better that way.

no. you should ask your family why they don't like him. then, while you're around him consider their answers and see if you agree with what they say about him. give this a little while. this will let you see him from your family's point of view. it is always healthier to see someone from multiple points of views before getting into such a big commitment as marriage with the person. also, it sucks to piss off your family and make them look down on you and not respect your decisions. if you decide to marry him, you should explain the situation and tell them that you have considered their problems with him before making your decision. good luck!

I wouldn't want to tell you what to do but I will tell you what we did. My husbands mother didn't like me so we went to Nevada and got married 49 years ago. His parents had five boys. His mother was never satisfied with any of her sons wives till the day she died at 95. She didn't have any daughters and I think that was part of the problem. None of her five boys ever divorced. She had a big problem that I have had to live with but my husband has been worth it. She did raise good honest honorable sons.

Not if you cherish your relationship with your mom and dad. Same with brothers or sisters.
Now if ya'll are fighting all the time anyway, I feel sorry for you, but if that's the case, then you and the fiance go make a good life together.

No...its going to make everyones relationship worse. Just confront both of your parents together and tell them, if they dont approve, you guys are still going to do it. Running away and getting married without them knowing is running away from the problem and makes you both look stupid and childish.

Follow your hearth, what is the worst thing that can happen?
I was in the same dilemma once... long story short did not follow my heart, and I've been missing my true love for every day of my life for 6 years now
Just make sure you really love him.
