Yao Ming Wedding Pictures
Mon, 06 August 2007 at 4:24 pm
Houston Rockets’ basketball star Yao Ming married longtime girlfriend Ye Li at a swank hotel in his hometown of Shanghai on Monday.
About 70 close friends and relatives joined 7′6″ Yao, who is 26, and the 6′2″ Ye, 25, at the five-star Shangri-La Hotel.
The couple met each other about eight years ago. Ye is also a basketball player for the Chinese national women’s team.
Pictures below include pre-wedding photos taken at a resort called Taihu Yuan Resort in the city of Lin’an. Also pictured are security checking guests’ invitations at the wedding, flower girls arriving and gifts given to reporters (no interviews were granted).

yay for yao ming! =)
Hey what a lovely couple - Congrats!!!!!
to cutie pie:
it’s funny and ignorant for you to say that “these people” don’t believe in dating or marrying out of their race…because you wouldn’t say that if two african american or two white people got married, so why do you have to say that just because two chinese people marry each other?
i’m not mad but i think you should take culture and values into perspective. not everyone in the world is the same and think the same way…please be more open minded.
wow, they are going to have incredibly tall children aha.
how cute.
Well said, Cali goof! Cutie pie, if you don’t have anything nice or smart to say, just stfu!!
This site is fantastic. JJ you cover it all while the other lame blogs cover people who no one could give a ish about.
Keep it coming.
Thanks JJ. Imagine this post going around in China websites..You’d get like a billion hits! LOL.
Keept it fresh, international and ahead of the curve. You rock.
These pics are fabulous!
Wow. She’s really really beautiful. they look very cute and happy
Wow JJ you are on it. The picture of the little flower girls are divine.

Congratulations to the Mings or is the Yao’s?
Is white a traditional color in China for a wedding dress?
Jared, what does it meant :Zhù nǐ mén bái tóu dào lǎo!!!!
He’s still a foot taller than her.
I wish them success and many tall children.
Congratulations.
I agree with # 15. I also like that they dated for 8 years and took their time. They set an example for people of any race! Congratulations to them both. As for the tall kids, well no one knows if they are even planning on kids. However, we can sort of figure they have had a chance to “talk” about it. How refreshing.
wow, she is 6′2 !! that is really Tall~
anyway gongxi gongxi
I remember seeing this film called The Wedding Banquet. It was a massive dinner for just a regular couple in China. I can’t even begin to imagine what these two superstars had. I wish them happiness and continued success on the court.
#10 - Cutie Pie: “these people sure dont believe in dating or marrying too muchout of their race.”
That is such an ignorant and racist comment!
I’m sure in the 8 years that they dated, they had plenty of opportunity to meet other people. These are 2 basketball superstars who can pick and choose anyone they want, and they chose each other.
Congrats to them! Just like to say thanks JJ because unlike someone else you’re actually kind.
A lovely wife and a truly beautiful couple. May they enjoy a lifetime of happiness!
Congrats, lovely couple and nic pics. tks jared
Well, to Hanna
This “Zhù nǐ mén bái tóu dào lǎo!!!!” means something like I wish you to live happily ever after.
