History In 1923, the establishment was built as The Exchange National Bank, the first bank in Tampa. While the interior was later restored, many of the neoclassical elements were retained. The Vault began hosting weddings in 2012.
Location This historical wedding venue is in the heart of Tampa’s Downtown Arts District. It is walking distance from churches, restaurants, hotels and Tampa Theatre. In the area, friends and family can visit Tampa Riverwalk and The Florida Aquarium. Tampa International Airport is only 13 minutes away.
We had booked this venue for our "Sangeet" night as a traditional Indian dance event that happens for the day before the wedding. I honestly cannot speak more highly of a venue in the Tampa Bay area. I wanted a venue that was chic, in a nice location of town, and something that would wow our guests.
The team recently put in a lot of effort to renovate the space, which includes beautiful tile floors in place of where carpet use to be on the sides of the venue and other beautiful features. Another unique feature of this venue is the bank vault located in the back of the venue, as it is an old converted bank. This is a great place for a photo opportunity for guests or even a place to put a photo booth up.
Besides the absolutely stunning venue, the real highlight of this place is the team you would work with to have your dream event. Morgan, the event manager, has taken so much of her personal time to make sure every question that we had was answered and met us in person whenever necessary to make sure we were comfortable with the layout. The team at this venue will put their heart into ensuring that you have the event you have dreamed of. Don't hesitate to use this venue for your next event, its spectacular!
