Baha'u'llah & the New Era 1970 by -J. Esslemont- 1 Para

Verily in the Book of Bayan (the Bab's Revelation) the matter is restricted to the consent of both (bride and bridegroom). As We desired to bring about love and friendship and the unity of the people, therefore We made it conditional upon the consent of the parents also, that enmity and ill-feeling might be avoided. - Kitab-i-Aqdas. (114:2)
