Lord Capulet believes his daughter is too young to marry, but he is also incapable of directly refusing Paris. To buy time, he instead asks Paris to court his daughter first. It shows that he knows what he thinks is best for his daughter and makes that decision for her.
According to the article it says,"In act I, scene II, of Romeo and Juliet, Count Paris approaches Capulet to ask for Juliet’s hand in marriage. Although at the time women did not have much say about whom they would marry, Capulet allows Juliet to be somewhat involved in the decision. He tells Paris that Juliet needs to approve of her future husband:
An she agree, within her scope of choice
Lies my consent and fair according voice.
However, Juliet is not consulted in the decision to let Paris court her. So while it may seem like Juliet is allowed to exercise her free will, it is only as much as her father decides she should have. In reality, Juliet is subject to her father's will and judgment."

My palace there; Eperitus my name
Not vulgar born: from Aphidas, the king
Of Polyphemon's royal line, I spring.

Our wandering course, and drove us on your shore;

And all the wing'd good omens of the skies.
Well hoped we then to meet on this fair shore,
Whom Heaven, alas! decreed to meet no more."
