Have you tried any Saison Blanche dresses? This is a random suggestion but I feel like I tried some on from saison Blanche that might have been along the same feel of the ones you posted. And they are great quality too!
Watters has a cheaper line called Wtoo that has some pretty nice, similar dresses...
WTOO is Watters' less expensive line and the dresses are beautiful, comparable to WTOO designs and made of very luxurious fabrics just like the more expensive line. I recommend checking those out. I'm a WTOO bride and I love it!
It's tempting but no online-shopping for me. I'm far too indecisive as it is, I definitely need to try something on before buy it. Glad you had good luck with them though!
Do you guys happen to know if all of the Wtoo dresses are on the Watters website or if there's more floating around out there? I've seen brides in dresses I really like, but there's only a couple on the website that look like something I would wear...
Have you tried Casablanca? I feel like their stuff is somewhat similar to Watters sometimes...
@ckow85: I don't know if there are others beyond the website, but I have to say, you've got to try them on. I hate my dress on the website - would NEVER get near it....but obviously I love it on me in real life. I also agree with the PP about Casablanca, too - they have some really beautiful dresses at a reasonable price and similar to Watters styles.
Have you called Pearl's Place to check their pricing? I purchased a Watters dress and the price at Pearl's Place was $450 lower than the dress shop.
I went with a Watters long bridesmaids dress in ivory. I just tried it on for the first time last week! The construction is not as heavy as a wedding dress but with a crinoline slip I think the A-line will be the fullness I am looking for. I don't like a lot of sparkle, but if you wanted to add something you could find a nice sash on etsy with bling!
Hope that helps! Oh and forgot to mention I spent $230!
You should look at Mikaella Bridal, she has some styles that I think you would like. Look at 1556, it's from a previous collection, also look at 1650, 1654, 1656 and 1659. Most Mikaella gowns are under $1500 closer to $1000
@JSK: You're right - great dresses! I really like quite a few of them. It's funny - I didn't even pay attention to the style options you gave me but I ended up writing all of them down when I was flipping through the website. Looks you know exactly the kind of style I'm looking for. If I end up falling in love with one of these I'll be forever grateful (and feeling MUCH less guilty for my Mom's poor checkbook).
This Mori Lee has a similar pleating detail as the Watters Tyler. I don't know the exact cost of this dress but every Mori Lee I tried on was less than 800 dollars and I tried on the big, elaborate ball gowns.

So, my wonderful Mother is buying my dress for me - she's also paying for 80% of our wedding. Originally we had a budget of $1000-1500 - but of course it seems like every dress I fall in love with is in the $1500-3000+ price range. When my Mom saw me in a Watters gown she started to consider buying me one. Now, I know this might sound stupid since I'm not footing the bill - but I REALLY don't want her to spend this much money on one dress, especially when she's helping us with everything as too. I've searched high and low for dresses similar to the styles I like at more affordable prices but I can't seem to find anything. There's a couple options from the Wtoo line but I don't think any of them are THE one. Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
Here are some of the styles that I love:
Modern Trousseau - Julia
Watters - Lasara
Modern Trousseau - Venice
Watters- Tyler
