This is better than a lot of essays I have seen here.
But there is still room for improvement.

Normally, when we want to make a plural out of person we say people. The word persons is normally used in such very formal contexts as legal documents.

Giving a dowry to a girl shows her value and importance especially if she is a virgin. But even so, not all girls care about it getting a dowry if they only need love. A dowry creates a lot of problems here if it is too expensive and excessive. Some families require a dowry as the most fundamental condition for marriage. They ask the groom (and his parents) a lot of money for a girl.

They shouldbn't ask him to pay beyond his ability?
