Chinese basketball star Yao Ming and his fianc?e Ye Li shoot wedding photos at the Taihu Yuan scenic resort in Lin'an, east China's Zhejiang province on July 31, 2007. Aug.2 - Chinese basketball superstar, Yao Ming, got up early Tuesday to shoot probably the most important group of photos in his life - his wedding photos - with his fianc?e Ye Li, a national basketball team player from Shanghai. They arrived early Tuesday morning at the Taihu Yuan scenic resort, the source of Taihu Lake, in the city of Lin'an, just two hours' drive from Ye Li's hometown, the Oriental Morning Post reported. During two hours of shooting time, Yao Ming was moved by the beauty not only of his fianc?e, but also of the scenery. He inquired into such environmental protection measures as limitations on the tourist flow. In fact, the NBA Houston Rockets center has been active in environmental protection. Last August, he pledged to stop eating shark's fin soup, a Chinese delicacy, as he joined a campaign to promote wildlife protection. In previous media reports it was introduced that Yao Ming and Ye Li would apply for a marriage certificate within this summer.
Wow, how tall is his wife? She looks realllly tall in that first picture, unless she's standing on something. Congrats though Yao.
She's 6'2" Congrats to the both of them...now show her what you can do and average 25+PPG adn 12+RPG xP She should play for a US team
If I don't remember wrong, she's playing or has played for the University of Houston team. Yao should pull some strings and get her on the Comets.
Man, I always thought most Chinese were shorter then average, But Yao is just showing me how many tall Asians there are.
A lot of chinese are short, but in comparison China has a lot more tall people then the US but they also have a lot more short people due to 1.3 billion people against 200 million.

The Houston Rockets center "rarely drinks," but this time he marked the occasion and "drank quite a bit," Yao spokesman Erik Zhang said. "I don't think [Yao] was drunk but he was pretty close. He went back to his room and fell asleep," Zhang said by telephone. "But he felt this was a celebration. And also his teammates, the people who care about him, they're not going to let him get away with not drinking. And he knows that."</div> Source: ESPN Yao getting crunk at his wedding on Mao Tai.
