It is not so much their parents' opposition to their love, since their parents don't find out about it until the very end of the play. It is more the anticipation of parental opposition that causes the problems. Romeo and Juliet want to keep their secret marriage a secret until it is consummated so their parents will have no chance of forcibly divorcing them. However, by that time Romeo is banished and the problem has become worse, since Juliet's mother is now talking about taking out a contract on Romeo's life, and she doesn't even know what he's done to Juliet. The chief obstacle to their love is now the fact that Romeo is in Mantua and Juliet is in Verona, but the secrecy in which their relationship is clothed, because of the fear of their parents' opinions, prevents Juliet from using more straightforward methods of joining Romeo.
