Mr and Mrs Paradorn Srichaphan dance their first dance. Paradorn Srichaphan and Natalie Glebova, a former Miss Universe, married in a private ceremony surrounded by honor guards on Thursday. The reception was held later in the day in the Grand Ballroom of the Oriental Hotel in Bangkok, Thailand.

The newly weds have no immediate plans to go on their honeymoon, as they are going to spend the next few weeks with family and friends.

When asked about children, 26-year-old Natalie said: “It is up to fate, but hopefully in the next few years.”

They auctioned off replica commemorative dolls of themselves to raise money for charities that work with people who are HIV positive.

The pair danced their first dance to Bryan Adams' "Everything I Do, I Do It For You".

ATP players Danai Udomchoke and Sonchat and Sanchai Ratiwatana were also in attendance, as well as many Thai dignitaries and celebrities.

Srichaphan missed the last seven months of the 2007 season due to a right wrist injury. The 28-year-old went 1-5 in ATP play, with his last tournament coming at ATP Masters Series Miami in late March. ATP Profile

His Russian Canadian wife was crowned Miss Universe in 2005, and is an ambassador for many international companies.

The pair first met at the Thailand Open in September 2006 and announced their engagement in April this year.
