As Valentine’s Day nears and we all prepare to celebrate with our loved ones (cats included), the U.S. Department of the Interior created a video showcasing couples who committed to one another while celebrating their love of planet Earth.

“America’s public lands are wonderful places to love and be in love,” the department wrote.

The video shows images of coupled getting engaged and married in the country’s national parks, wildlife refuges and scenic wildernesses.

The Department of the Interior oversees 500 million acres of land in mostly in the western states and 1.7 billion acres on the Outer Continental Shelf.
