My parents tried to warn me and I didn't listen. I ended up in a mess of a marriage, that took a long time to get over.

I think that your advice is good, without the sweeping generalization. A lot of parents have a model spouse in mind for their kid. Sometimes its a culture thing, or a religious thing. Or a money thing. Sometimes they are downright threatened.
But I do think she should objectively hear out their reasons and decide for herself if its true. And then make her choice. Some parents come around (although with a start like this, its not a good sign).
