Amelia + Ryan
Founders of PAPER HEARTS, Amelia + Ryan share a love for epic vocal harmonies and feel-good tunes. Their signature sound, shared lead vocals, endless vocal harmonies, acoustic guitar and cajon box drum, continues to capture the hearts of couples, fellow-vendors and venues alike.
Originally from Melbourne, Ryan met Amelia whilst working in a recording studio in Sydney in 2011, fell in love, got married and eventually smuggled her back to Melbourne in 2019. Ryan grew up performing covers solo/duo/trio/band in pubs/clubs/restaurants etc since the age of 18, as well as touring the country (and overseas) in various originals bands. He also spent a number of years songwriting/recording/producing for other artists, including many from TV shows such as Australian Idol, X-Factor and The Voice.
Originally from Sydney, Amelia spent many years of her childhood living in London where she performed in various West End musicals. Fun fact, Amelia had a small speaking role in the first "Harry Potter" movie (seriously!) and features as a singing character in a series of 'Thomas The Tank Engine' episodes. Amelia moved back to Australia during her early teens and as a young adult she headed off to work as a lead vocalist on cruise ships, travelling the world performing for the next 3 years before meeting Ryan.
A happily married couple themselves, Amelia + Ryan understand weddings from both a vendors perspective as well as the couples. Their vast wedding experience and versatility see them taking guests on a musical journey from first guest arrival at the ceremony, right through to the very last song of the night - they are available as a duo or trio, and also switch into DJ mode for the popular Duo/DJ combination package.
