Wedding costs more/take way more organization in generalBlack people do more for prom than they weddings.
And all types of people throw in money for proms, your barber you grew up with might hook you up for prom and not think anything of it, it's more of a community celebration for you not completely crashing out as a teenager.
Same breh would look at your crazy asking to him you with your wedding

If you as a couple can't afford setting up a wedding the average response is "y'all don't need to get married yet then, just gonna start out in debt"
