Top Five Unique Wedding Touches Done at Vault 634

Scrolling through Pinterest isn’t the only place to find unique touches for your wedding. Whether you are looking for inspiration on floral displays or interactive additions for your guests, looking to event planning experts is the best first stop. It’s important to work with your wedding venue and your partner to decide how you can make the evening special for each other and your guests.

Check out this list of our top five unique wedding touches done at Vault 634 to get inspiration for your event.

Live Sketch Artist or Painter

The art of capturing the moment doesn’t need to be left to your photographer alone. The detailed touch of having a sketch artist bring your wedding onto paper adds an intimate display to your evening. This couple opted out of a photobooth and chose art for their guests to have a keepsake beyond a photograph. Some couples may choose to hire a live painter, like Maggie Jean Paints, to capture the ceremony or guest portraits on canvas. Combined with Vault 634’s picturesque backdrop, this addition is a wonderful way to intertwine art and photography in our historic space. We loved seeing how this couple’s guests took advantage of this unique addition throughout the night.

Audio Guestbook

Are you looking for a memorable way for your loved ones to provide well-wishes on your wedding day? In a historic space like Vault 634, using a vintage rotary phone to record voicemails from loved ones is a unique guestbook alternative. Throughout the evening, your guests can take a moment away from the noise and record a “voicemail” for you and your partner. Whether it is a family member looking to give marriage advice or a friend sending a heartfelt message on love and laughter, an audio guestbook is a personal touch to any wedding. After the celebration, you will receive your voicemails on an audio file, USB, or custom vinyl record so you can keep these well-wishes for life.

Ice Cream Truck

You don’t need to have your wedding on a Sunday to enjoy a little “sundae” magic. For couples who share a love of ice cream, inviting a charming ice cream truck to join the celebration can add a playful, nostalgic touch your guests won’t forget. One couple brought true “sundae funday” energy to their reception, with a sweet treat waiting just outside Vault 634—offering a delightful excuse to step out, mingle, and savor the moment in the fresh air. It’s a whimsical way to spark joy and create a memorable experience.

Vintage Car

Did you know that cars first arrived in Allentown, PA in 1889 by Henry Nadig, who built a four-wheeled gas-powered carriage, which he frequently drove at night to avoid alarming horses? It wouldn’t be until the turn of the century that the first car dealership was opened by Allentown Boiler Works, and by 1910, only about 12 automobiles existed in the city. However, by the 1920s, automobile ownership would become more common, creating a significant shift for Allentown natives in how they moved around the city and countryside. These vehicles are now considered ‘vintage’, but like our venue, adaptive reuse of historic items brings a unique touch to any wedding event. This couple paired the historic charm of Vault 634 with vintage glamour of a 1930s automobile. The backdrop of Allentown’s city scenery combined with the historic backdrop of Vault 634 make this unique addition to a wedding the perfect way to ride off into the sunset with your beloved!

Florals As Décor

One of the top spring wedding trends of 2026 is florals as décor. This unique touch brings a combination of the vibrant colors of spring and outside greenery to breathe life into an indoor space. If your venue works with local florists, discuss with the event staff to collaborate on decorative pieces for your special day. Whether you’re looking to wrap flowers across our grand staircase like this couple or place custom floral arrangements for each table, the inspiration is endless when you decorate with florals.

Get Inspired by Your Venue

When you walk into the perfect venue for your wedding, there will be a moment of awe at the space. After all your venue tours and emails from staff, you can finally say you found the right place for your wedding. If you fall in love with a historic venue such as Vault 634, or someplace else, the best inspiration for your wedding should come from the place hosting you and your guests.

No matter the dream, Vault 634 takes your vision and brings it to life. These unique touches from our space showcase each aesthetic that walks into our doors with the assurance of a night well-cared for by our amazing staff.
