I think you'll have no problem finding a trailer for your family that the Suburban can comfortably pull, lots of lightweight options out there.
Like mentioned, payload will be the number you'll need to pay close attention to.
I'll give an example. Let's say the Burb has 1500 lbs of payload and your trailer weighs 7000 lbs loaded.
12% of 7000 = 840lb tounge weight.
Wife, 2 kids and a dog = 550 lbs
Cooler and hitch = 100 lbs
That all consumes 1490 lbs of the 1500 lb payload.
Your still good but gives you an ideal what to look for.

My apology, see Burbman gave example.
