We acknowledge that we have made our home on the unceded traditional lands of Coast Salish peoples, specifically the Duwamish (Dxʷdəwʔabš), Suquamish (suq̀ʷabš), and Stillaguamish (stuləgʷábš) Peoples of the past and present. We honor this abundant and magnificent land, and the Tribes who have called it home since time immemorial, with the deepest gratitude. When we assemble to celebrate the joyous occasion of our marriage, we will gather on the very Indigenous land where our federal government made and broke promises to the Tribes, and where it continues to refuse to grant federal recognition to the Duwamish Tribe. We give thanks for the land we inhabit, which was not ours to inherit. We pay #RealRentDuwamish monthly to support the the revival of Duwamish culture and the vitality of the Duwamish Tribe on the land we love.

Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove, has been hallowed by some sad or happy event in days long vanished.” Chief Seattle 1854
