Marriage and Marital Issues
#12
Parental approval of marriages, and arranged marriages, are usually associated with accepted societal traditions and customs, and not with any claim that these are actually religious requirements. So it would not be considered a sin of inventing a new religion, unless you specifically made it so within a novel new doctrine.

However, it would be ill-advised, and dictatorial, to impose these rules as absolute requirements. The Torah stresses that neither men nor women should be forced to enter into an unwanted marriage, and that for Gentiles, the establishment of an authentic marriage bond is dependent upon willingness or at least acceptance by both the man and the woman. This is explained in Part VI, chapters 3 and 4, of "The Divine Code" by Rabbi Moshe Weiner of Jerusalem:
