She suffers from depression and anxiety and before she decided to get married, I advised her not to make any big decisions in life until mentally stronger. She started a med that wasn't effective (she got depression from events at work, school, roommate ) so Doctor trying this new med. Then recently decided to get married.

Im sorry I know you are upset that your daughter is going to marry someone you dont approve of but here in america even the mentally ill can have their own friends and marry who ever when ever they want to.
suicide being enough of a reason to put off marriage, no its not I have my mental challenges including depression and have a background of suicide, self injury and lots more problems. I tell you one the best things that happened in my life was marrying the woman of my life. my life is so much better because she is there when I wake up in the morning, shes there when I go to sleep at night and shes there any time I have any problems. she has seen me through the worst of my medication problems, MS flair ups and my darkest suicidal days. she is the best human being to come into my life.
if you really love your daughter you will accept her decisions, whether or not she takes your advice. her love for this person may in fact be just what she needs for her own happiness, well being.
being suicidal is also not grounds in a court of law to prevent a person from getting married. I even attended a friends wedding while she was in a mental hospital.
