I presume you are asking about Shakespeare's plays here. In the plays, the parents of the daughters usually expect that the parents will get to choose a mate for their daughters. They can sometimes get quite violent about it (in Romeo and Juliet or A Midsummer Night's Dream, for example). Nevertheless, there is only one woman in all of Shakespeare who is married against her wishes and that is Margaret, wife of Henry VI. Hermia, Juliet, Imogen and Anne Page avoid the arranged marriages, and Desdemona marries secretly without even asking her father.
Is it expected that daughters will marry? Sure, but it is equally expected of sons. Pairing off and marrying was and is a happy thing.
