Salander Strings

Hello! I’m Faith Salander- a professional wedding violinist based in the Illinois Valley. I have over 10 years of experience performing for weddings and events in the Illinois Valley and surrounding areas. I can play solo, with backing tracks, or collaborate with other musicians (duo, trio, quartet). I would love to have a consultation to meet, discuss music, and answer all of your questions!

For me, playing at weddings isn’t just about music—it’s about connection. I love getting to know each couple, hearing their story, and weaving those emotions into the music I play. No two weddings are ever the same, and that’s why I work closely with you to select the perfect songs for your ceremony, cocktail hour, or reception. My goal is to make sure you not only hear the music, but truly feel it. With years of performance experience, a wide repertoire, and a deep passion for celebrating love, I strive to bring professionalism and heart to every event.
