Brax Girl Ed 25: Alex

A Legacy of Love, Laughter, and a Perfect Ring

Sometimes love begins with a swipe—and ends with forever.

For Alex and Derrick Gant, their story started on Hinge in July 2022. One spontaneous decision turned into daily conversations that deepened their connection. By the time they met in person, it was clear: this wasn’t just chemistry. It was the start of something real.

As a firefighter, Derrick’s schedule was anything but predictable—but that didn’t stop them from carving out time for each other. When Alex realized he was the one, she didn’t hold back—sending playful screenshots of Brax engagement rings, her dream already taking shape.

But this love story goes beyond Alex and Derrick. Brax Jewelers had already been a part of her family's milestones, with her mother and sister proudly wearing Brax rings. So when Derrick proposed on June 10, 2023—just before Alex’s 30th birthday—he wasn’t just offering a ring. He was continuing a legacy.

The couple tied the knot on November 4, 2023 in Montgomery, Texas, surrounded by family, love, and laughter. Their story grew even richer with the arrival of their daughter, Sutton Rae, born September 20, 2024.

From a swipe to a spark, from a dream ring to a family of three—Alex's journey is proof that love always finds its way.
