From top: Lerario with Geller on her father's cattle ranch in Brazil; the couple and Richard Chai at their wedding.
Geller’s father, meanwhile, is a photographer, currently living in a windmill near Hamburg; his mother is a former journalist–turned–horse breeder outside Frankfurt. It’s Lerario’s mom, though, who had a bit of mother’s intuition going on. She knew well before Lerario that her daughter would end up marrying Geller. “I dragged my mom around at the 2001 Marc Jacobs after-party to introduce her to Robbie,” the designer says. “Then afterward, when we started dating, my mom goes, ‘I knew it. Why else would you be on a mission to introduce your intern to your mother?’”
