I've just switched from Android to iPhone and there is something I'm missing: is there a way to get a shortcut in the notifications or control center to switch vibrate on and off ?
I don't want to go to Settings>Sounds> but access this directly

EDIT:
This is a feature in iOS 6. You can schedule notification suppression by opening the Settings app > Notifications > Do not disturb.

Unfortunately, there is no native way to do that in iOS 5.
Like you thought, the notification center, currently does not allow customization in that way. I think Apple could have added features similar to that one, but have chosen not to, either because they haven't wanted to take the time (but that hasn't seemed to stop them in the past), or because they have a big focus on keeping things simple.
You can make the LED flash instead of Vibrate when you have notifications.
Go to Settings > General > Accessibility and scroll down to 'Hearing' where 'LED Flash for Alerts' resides.

Best Answer
There is no such shortcut available on iOS.
The closest thing to it is the mute button on the side of the iPhone. You can disable the vibration on mute.
