You mean "Why does Capulet NOT let Juliet choose who she marries?" In many cultures around the world, people, especially young people, do not arrange their own marriages. India is a great example. The same situation applied to the society being represented in the play. Indeed, even in countries where people generally choose the people they marry, people who are not yet adults (who are, for example, thirteen like Juliet) may not marry without the consent of the parents, who have every right to oppose the proposed marriage. And that is certainly what the Capulets would have said about the idea of marrying Juliet to Romeo. Romeo, Juliet and the Friar hoped that if it was shown that they had not only gone through a form of marriage, but that they had consummated it by having sex, the Capulets would be forced to accept the situation. That is why they kept the marriage secret.
