for all you music lovers
Hi! We’re Amelia & Ryan – music lovers, dance-floor enablers, married duo, and the very proud humans behind Paper Hearts.
​
We run a small-but-mighty collective of acoustic musicians and DJs who live for the good stuff — soulful soundtracks, perfect party vibes, and helping couples bring the magic on their big day (and night).
​
Think of us as your musical fairy godfolk: thoughtful, experienced, and totally obsessed with crafting tunes that feel like you. We specialise in weddings and events across Melbourne, Sydney + wherever love takes us.
Whether it’s a stripped-back aisle moment or an all-in boogie session, we’re here for it.
​
Our artists? Ridiculously talented. Many play live and DJ (yes, unicorns do exist), and we also have an ace team of DJs ready to bring the sparkle. Watching a room full of people you love absolutely lose it on the dance floor? Top-tier joy.
​
When we’re not performing as our own acoustic duo/DJ combo or helping couples find the soundtrack, we’re chasing our two small humans, cuddling our cat, sipping coffee, eating sushi, and soaking up time with our fave people.
​
Thanks for stopping by. If you're vibing us, hit that enquiry button — we’d love to hear from you.

Big love,
Amelia + Ryan x
WHAT OUR COUPLES SAY
Rebekah & Alex
The Stables Bendooley Estate NSW
Ryan & Amelia were so easy to work with in the lead up to our wedding. Super quick responses to question and always happy to provide suggestions to our timings for the day and best way to maximise the time we had our artists playing for.
We had Tash & Mitch (The Junos) play as a duo for the ceremony through dinner then Mitch hit the decks with Jimmy the sax plater for the dance floor!
We were so grateful Tash & Mitch learned our first dance song to play on the night, it was so beautiful they did executed it perfectly!
We would highly recommend Ryan & Amelia from Paper Hearts and Tash & Mitch as our artists to any bride and groom!

We cannot thank Ryan and Amelia enough for the part they played in our big day.
There wasn’t a dry eye in the house as their acoustic tones sent us down the aisle, followed by a chilled set that complimented the canapés and cocktail start to our wedding.
All I wanted as a bride was to spend the night doing what I love best - getting down on the dance floor with my family and friends! This was definitely the case thanks to Ryan’s DJ set that sent both the bride and groom back to their younger days and nightclub dance floors. The mix of tunes meant that all age groups were able to get up and boogie the night away!!
Thanks again Ryan and Amelia, you were just perfect!
Brittany & Mat
Zonzo Estate, VIC
We had the most amazing experience with Paper Hearts for our wedding. Jess and Lawson were the acoustic duo who played during our ceremony and cocktail hour, and Scott was the DJ and MC who kept the party going all night. They were all professional, friendly, and talented, and they exceeded our expectations in every way.
​
We loved Jess and Lawson's harmonies, guitar skills, and song choices, and we knew they would be perfect for our romantic and relaxed wedding. They blew us away with their live performance, which sounded even better than their recordings.They had such a great chemistry and energy, and they created a beautiful atmosphere for us and our guests.
​
We are so grateful to Paper Hearts for making our wedding day unforgettable. Ryan and Amelia were so quick to respond and accommodating, they made the entire process so smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality entertainment for their special occasion. Thank you Paper Hearts!
