I'm thinking a silnylon tarp (maybe something like this?) https://www.amazon.com/Sanctuary-SilTarp-Ultralight-Waterproof-Backpacking/dp/B0763SQJL4/ for the top.
For the ground sheet I'm renovating my house and have a lot of 6 mil polyethylene sheeting (https://www.homedepot.com/p/HDX-20-ft-x-100-ft-Clear-6-mil-Plastic-Sheeting-CFHD0620C/204711640 or similar) around so I figured I could just cut maybe 6x8 feet of that out and be good. I just want to keep my bag/pad and any gear inside the shelter off wet ground.

Paria tarp is $65-80, depending on which shape you get. These are good quality budget options. The hex tarp versions are designed for hammocks.

If you are looking at a hammock setup, I wouldn't go for what you have listed, it's pretty heavy and you will move on from that quickly. I just built a modular hammock setup that comes in just a little over 2lbs for $200. It uses no hardware, just a becket hitch to attach the straps to the continuous loop. Don't know the name of the knot I use to tie up the tarp, but many can be used.
Hammock $30: Wide Netless Hammock from Dutchwaregear with continuous loops and ridgeline
Tarp $80: Hexagon Siltarp from Amazon
Bugnet $57: Bottom entry bugnet from dutchwaregear
Suspension $25 UHMWPE Straps from dutchwaregear
The only additional things you need is an underquilt/pad and a quilt/sleeping bag.
If you are trying to sleep two people. I would get two hammocks, maybe a bigger tarp, and dutchwaregear offers a double bugnet. Sleeping two people in one hammock all night is not going to be comfy.
