Answer
You are an adult in Islam. In principle, if an adult male or female conducts his/her Nikah without the consent of the parents, the Nikah will be valid on condition it was witnessed by two adult Muslim males or Muslim male and two Muslim females.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
