actually some slave owners allowed slave marriages and some didn't the ones who didn't allow it didn't allow until the 1900s but the ones who allowed it did it for selfish reasons like if they were married they could have kids and then the salve owners would take them away afterward for slave work. Also the ones who allowed marriage for slaves thought the men would be less rebellious so he wouldn't leave his wife and children and run away.
So I hope this answers your questions! <(^.^)>
