Both are Watters and Watters, I found the Austin first, then added the Napa today. I cried when I put it on, which I really didn't expect to ever do, but I can get the Austin secondhand for about $1200, while the Napa is so new I'd have go retail ($2600). When I tried the Austin on again after the Napa, I still totally loved it. Basically the Napa has gorgeous details on the bodice, but the simplicity of the Austin allows for amazing accesories, like the bling-y belt I have on in here. What do you think, is the Napa nicer enough to justify $1300 more?

I honestly like the Austin so much more than the Napa. You look great in it!
I prefer the simplicity of the Austin. :)
And no, I don't think the price difference is justified unless you really prefer the Napa and can afford it.
You're right in that they're both beautiful!
I got confused and thought the Austin was more expensive for a sec, and was sad that I'd have to say get the pricier one because the Austin is def the best. I'm so glad the Austin is the more affordable and I don't have to have that guilt to vote honestly :)
It looks AMAZING on you, and I want to try it on for me now too hehe
Austin, and that has nothing to do with the price; I just prefer it.
I love both! I ultimately voted Napa, because I like how smooth it is on your body and empahsizes your waist. Then I read that it costs $1300 more. I like it $200 more, not $1300 more! The Austin looks gorgeous on you too and that sash is gorgeous! You can't go wrong with either.
I would ask what you feel your wedding will be more like? They are both absolutely gorgeous on you, and you look so lovely. I only ask because the Austin has a more clean/blingy effect, whereas the Napa would be great for a vintage-y/garden-y shabby chic wedding. You made some lovely choices for yourself, I would just go with the one that suits the vibe you're going for overall.
@colli459: I'm having a farm/barn wedding, so rustic and a bit vintage. I agree with you on the personalities of the dresses, though I also thought the Austin could have a simple, country feel.
Everyone else, I love that you all love the Austin! I think the Napa would be my choice all else being even, but I really think I'll be totally thrilled wearing the Austin too. BTW, the difference in retail price is about $600, it's just that I have found the Austin secondhand.
I skipped right to the pictures and loved the Austin before I even went back and read the price. With the pricing info too, definitely Austin!
I really like the Napa, but it's probably not worth the dramatic price increase. The Austin looks amazing too!
For aesthetics alone, I like the Austin. you can definitely dress and dazzle it up! The skirts are similar/the same so you aren't losing attention there. I feel that the Napa might seem more dated when you look back on it. Now when you mentioned it is 2x the price, I would say definitely go with the Austin! But then again, you will JUST KNOW a dress is the One based on how you feel.... i hope that didn't confuse you even more
I like them both but prefer the Austin. I like the simplicity of it and the fact that you can bling it up. The other one looks a little too "sweet".
I voted on Napa before I realized it was $1300 more...totally not worth it, go with Austin.
I prefer the Austin anyways. :) I love the best too. It's funny how they have basically the exact same bottom.
I vaguely preferred the Napa until I saw the price difference. Austin!
I almost bought the Austin (the store I was in even looks the same as your picture - are you at the Lovely Bride in NYC?). Both look gorgeous on you, and I don't see any difference that makes the Napa worth $1400 more.
both are gooooorgeous dresses on you. I voted for austin but simply because of the price. I don't think the napa is worth 1300 more because the austin is so pretty anyway.
I didn't read what you wrote until after I looked at the pictues. The first one (Austin) is much better. The top looks like it flows so well with the bottom. The other one feels more forced to me.
I love the Austin on you, especially if you can find it cheaper online!
I LOVE the Napa on you! I know I am against the majority, but it just is a major WOW to me!
LOVE the napa but its not worth the extra $. The first one also looks amazing
I really love the Napa. Did you get to try the gorgeous bolero that goes with it?
(But I agree with the other ladies that Napa isn't $1300 more gorgeous. I say go with your gut instinct! You look terrific in both!) :-)
