Spring Valley Wedding

Spring Valley is an unincorporated community in San Diego County, California, United States. The community includes the neighborhood of La Presa and part of the neighborhood of Casa de Oro (which extends into unincorporated La Mesa). The United States Census Bureau has divided Spring Valley into two census-designated places (CDPs), Spring Valley and La Presa. The population of the Spring Valley CDP was 26,663 at the 2000 census. If the The La Presa CDP is included the population would be 59,384. There are claims that the Greater Spring Valley area has over 100,000 residents [1] although this claims large areas that are usually considered unincorporated parts of La Mesa and El Cajon.

Spring Valley is named for the natural spring located there. It was long the home of the Kumeyaay tribe, who called it Neti or Meti. Spanish conquerors drove off the natives and used the area for cattle, calling it El aguaje de San Jorge (St. George's Spring).
