Bathroom Ceiling Bluetooth Speaker System

Hi guys,
I'm looking to install some ceiling speakers into my bathroom which I want to have bluetooth connectivity to. I've looked into a couple of options which are a ready-made package but I was wondering if I could do it cheaper myself by constructing my own. Can anyone help please?
I would like to install two ceiling speakers and am guessing I need a bluetooth audio receiver but do I need anything else? I.e. an amp?
I'm hoping to keep majority of the system hidden i.e. in the loft above and all of it powered directly off a circuit. I would also like some sort of remote control that could potentially be wall mounted so we can use it from the bath however think this may be a rather large ask as it would need to be waterproof (we have a shower unit over the bath)
Any ideas welcome - hope someone out there can help or at least point me in another direction

You would need to waterproof it and possibly require part p certificate if touching electrics0

I have two ceiling speakers in the bathroom which go into the hall cupboard (next to the bathroom). They are connected to a Sonos Connect Amp. I bought a couple of Sonos CR100 controllers from Ebay. One is on charge whilst the other is in use on a little stand on the bathroom windowsill.
This setup means I have access to the radio as well as music on my NAS and also music on my iphone. I can obviously also control the music through the Sonos app on my phone.Ditch 100 in January Challenge 100/100
