We like to tent camp in Grand Tetons at the Colter Bay campground. It's just a short drive to Yellowstone from there, and the campground was quiet and secluded.
Make sure you use the bear boxes, or keep all the food in the car with the windows rolled all the way up! Don't keep any food or scented items in the tent.
In Southern Wyoming, Flaming Gorge National Rec Area is supposed to be gorgeous.

How do I convince wife to camp (tent) in YellowStone National park?

She has never camped in a tent. And most of all she is concerned about our safety as late May there may be a lot of hungry bears that are coming out of hibernation. I wouldn't want to compromise safety either, given we have a six year old son. But how could I convince her that front country tent camping is safe during late May?
Answer
Bears are only after food. Keep your site clean and store your food properly and you are unlikely to have any problems.
That means no candy wrappers or food containers in your tent, pockets, or left in your car. The same goes for cosmetics. Bears have a keen sense of smell. I have been camping almost every year since I was a kid in the 1940's and have never had a problem with bears when my food was properly stored and trash properly disposed of. National Parks in bear country have steel food storage lockers at each campsite. Follow the rules and everything will be fine.
I got a roomy tent tall enough to stand erect any have room to walk around in. A Queen size air bed that is standard height. I invested in a porta-potti.
When I served my wife her breakfast in bed the first morning she was hooked.
Now in our seventies and my sweetheart is still an avid camper.
