At last the world’s tallest man, Bao Xishun found his ladylove, when he married Xia Shujian, who is two third of his height and half his age.

56-year-old Bao Xishun, from Mongolia stands 7ft 9in (2.3m) was recognized as the tallest man by Guinness Book of Records in 2005. By occupation Bao is a herdsman and also works for publicity stunts.

Bao claims to be a descendant of Genghis Khan (1162 to 1227) and tied the knots with 29-year-old bride, Xia Shujian at E’erduosi League, in inner Mongolia, a place where Genghis Khan’s remains are buried.

Xia who just reaches Bao’s elbow has been completely taken away by Bao. She is madly in love with Bao after just a one-month of courtship.

Boa began searching for his life partner last year and received some 20 offers of women from different regions. However no one seemed satisfactory to him. It was after that when he found Bao on his doorsteps.

The newlywed couple also dreams of having a tall son who would become a great basketball player.

His status of the tallest living man of the world also added glitz to his wedding ceremony. The whole affair had some 2,000 guests and was sponsored by more than 15 companies. These companies sponsored the event from the food and drink to the clothes of the couple.
I wish the newly weds health and happiness!

Couples plan various record setter events to make their wedding memorable. I assume that same inspired Ken, a Chinese groom from Guangzhou City to have her bride dressed up in the country’s longest wedding dress for their wedding that is scheduled for October 30,2007.

Too many weddings, too many dress needs to be bought and it’s too hot? How do you deal with everything? Well you need not panic. I have just come across some wonderful do-it-yourself things, which will make the wedding trips for you just fun.

The travel expenses are high, and the gowns don’t come cheap as well. It is not a good idea to buy a whole lot of designer wears just to attend the wedding ceremonies that are in the pipeline. The magic lies in mixing and matching the outfits and the trick of the trade is to pick up the right piece of jewelry.

Summer Wedding Tips

For sure there will be two to three frocks or any other outfits, which you had worn just once last year. Hey ladies, no one would even remember, if you go for a repeat.

Avoid the colour white, as it is the bridal colour. If it’s a daytime wedding, choose some light shade, a knee length skirt teamed with a V-neckline top, or an off-shoulder frock with some floral print and team it up with a 2-inch strap sandal.

If it’s a night wedding ceremony, you can definitely have more options to choose from. Black is always an in colour and I am sure you will have a black dress stashed at some corner in your wardrobe. Accessorize it with some nice beaded jewelry or some metal stuff and a neat evening purse.

Change your hairdo every-time. You may repeat the same dress but do style it up with different accessories.

‘The international day against racism’ on March 21 was taken as a platform for a mass wedding celebration in St-Niklaas in northern Belgium. Deputy Mayor Wouter Van Bellingen plays the overseer of this evening as 700 couples say ‘I do’ in St-Niklaas.

The step was taken by Van Bellingen, the first black councillor of St-Niklaas, as a protest for an incident that took place in February when three couples refused to let a black official get them married. Deeply moved by the incident Van Bellingen said:

It was the most primitive form of racism. Nothing but the colour of my skin.

Racism is at its peak in Belgium and discrimination based on skin colour is the latest disease that has infected a majority in Belgium. There was a huge protest last year following the killing of a woman of African origin. A 2-year-old girl was also killed in that incident.

Rwandan-born Van Bellingen, who was elected as councillor at local elections in October, arranged the mass wedding on March 21 which is observed as International Day Against Racism by the UNESCO.

Though the opposition is trying to label this mass wedding as a political gimmick by Bellingen, it was a very necessary step taken to let the common people identify with the problem that is killing a nation.

Marriages are made in heaven, we have heard this many a times but sometimes even a divorce can make someones life at par with the heaven.

If the woman seeking the divorce is none other than Mrs Abramovich it is well understood that she will make a fortune out of it.

Roman Abramovich, 40, the billionaire oil tycoon from Russia and owner of the Chelsea Football Club has just divorced after repeated denial that his 16-year marriage was in trouble. Divorce followed when Abramovich was being linked to 24-year-old model and Russian socialite Daria Zhukova.

Britain’s second and the world’s eleventh wealthiest man, with a fortune of £11 billion, began his business selling plastic ducks in Moscow but was intelligent enough to make a fortune by exploiting postSoviet Russia’s oil and aluminium assets.

The details of the divorce settlement is not made public but it is speculated that 39-year-old Irina Abramovich, who was a stewardess when she met her hubby, will get a payout of not less than £5 billion.
Now this is called jumping for the sparrow and getting hold of the moon.
