VanityGrams.com is a high-impact, on-demand content creation service designed to elevate attendee engagement and extend the life of conference experiences. By capturing short-form, personalized video messages (“VanityGrams”) on-site, the platform transforms ordinary event moments into shareable, branded digital assets. Attendees, speakers, and sponsors can quickly record customized messages—whether it’s a shoutout, testimonial, recap, or social post—delivered in a polished, ready-to-share format within minutes. For conference planners, the value is threefold. First, it drives deeper engagement by giving participants a fun, interactive way to express themselves and connect with the event. Second, it amplifies reach through organic social sharing, as attendees distribute their VanityGrams across their networks, increasing visibility and FOMO around the conference. Third, it provides measurable ROI through branded content that highlights sponsors, reinforces event messaging, and generates a library of authentic user-generated media for post-event marketing. VanityGrams.com integrates seamlessly into conference environments—whether as a booth activation, roaming content team, or VIP experience—requiring minimal setup while delivering maximum impact. The result is a more memorable, shareable, and marketable event that continues to generate value long after it ends.

Located near O’Hare and only a few blocks away from the DES Convention Center, Rosemont marks our second location in Chicagoland.

Differentiated menus are offered for all dayparts including lunch, dinner, weekend brunch and group dining, plus full-service catering and contactless takeout and delivery options.

Our Orland Park location is located in the Orland Square Shopping Center, a premier dining and shopping destination. The restaurant features an open churrasco grill giving guests a 360-degree view of gaucho chefs demonstrating the culinary art of churrasco as they butcher, prepare and grill high-quality cuts of protein over an open flame.

Additional highlights to enhance the guest experience include an expansive dining room centered around a fresh and seasonal Market Table anchored at the front of the grill, dry aged meat lockers for in-house aging and a lively indoor Bar Fogo area, ideal for smaller, shareable plates and craft cocktails.

Hi. My name is Rob Mendell. I've been performing interactive close-up Card Magic since 1973. I thoroughly enjoy my job, and my audiences love this friendly, professional, and entertaining magic. I have over 700 reviews on Google and Yelp; they are all five stars. I work at all kinds of gatherings and celebrations, including corporate events, trade shows, and a wide variety of private parties. I've been a Licensed Street Performer in Chicago since 2005. I'm a member of the Society of American Magicians and the International Brotherhood of Magicians. At events with up to about 20 people, I perform one show for everyone together. At larger events, I stroll, creating a series of small, intimate performances. I am happy to customize one of my signature effects; we can discuss this on a phone call. I look forward to speaking with you about how I can bring fun and wonder to your (clients') events.

ProEvent Video provides professionally managed event video and photography through a vetted local professional network in major U.S. event markets. Local videographers and photographers handle on-site capture, while ProEvent centrally manages planning, production oversight, editing, and final delivery to ensure consistent quality from market to market. We support corporate events, conferences, trade shows, activations, and live experiences from pre-production planning through final post-production. Services include conference and keynote coverage, trade show and in-booth video, social media content, interviews and customer testimonials, event photography, executive portraits, and branded photo and video booth experiences. Every project begins with the client’s brief. We align on goals, shot priorities, and deliverables in advance, coordinate the appropriate local professional for the assignment, and oversee production to keep the project organized, on brand, and on schedule. Because our model uses experienced local professionals rather than flying production teams from market to market, clients benefit from strong local talent, reduced travel costs, and one consistent point of contact managing the entire process. Final deliverables can include highlight reels, recap videos, social clips, event photography galleries, executive and team portraits, slideshows, branded content assets, and other post-event media for marketing, PR, internal communications, sales, and future promotion.
