If I were going to take a vacation - and it's a casual company - I would definitely have some sort of correspondence - such as an email to the manager - requesting permission for the leave. If it's a legit company, there will be paperwork - vacation/time-off request that you would have had to fill out and get approved.

If you just got it verbally approved, there is no-one to back you up. The company can just say - you decided to take time off without permission, so you are fired. Without any paperwork/proof, you would be SOL.
