For her big 4-3 on Saturday, Jennifer Aniston was feted with quite the sophisticated soiree!

An insider tells Us Weekly that the actress' hot-and-heavy beau Justin Theroux rented out a penthouse suite  overlooking West Hollywood's Sunset Strip and threw his girlfriend a party where A-list pals including Courteney Cox, Chelsea Handler, Jimmy Kimmel, Ben Stiller, Emily Blunt and Jason Bateman turned out to celebrate.

"There was minimal decor with white hurricane candles lining the room and the balcony. A bar was set up inside along with a table where guests put presents," the insider tells Us of party's atmosphere. "It was a cold night, but there were heaters on the patio. There were servers walking around with appetizers and jazz music playing."

Donning her go-to all-black garb, Aniston worked a sleeveless black dress and sipped on martinis while she happily made her way around the room to spend time with each of her guests.

"She seemed very excited to see her friends, but she never got too far from Justin," the insider tells Us. "Every once in awhile, Justin would come up from behind and give her a big hug and kiss. They would embrace and whisper to each other for a minute but then go back to socializing. She seemed very relaxed."

"The party went late night and many people stayed past midnight," the insider adds. "Jen and Justin were some of the last people to leave."

    DITTO @ Pam Simon!!---Some of you please STFU about Jenn vs. Brad & Angelina..all 3 have said a ZILLION times (Jenn even recently) about how they are SO over the non-existent "love/hate triangle" that people fuel..for the love of all that is holy...let it GO!! I personally think all 3 of them are cool, talented, successful people in their own way and I'd love to meet any one of them!

    I am so sick of people connecting Jen A. and Brad and Ang.. Brad and Jen were over many years ago. They both have moved on and so should everyone else.

    Shirley, Chelsea is a "comic" and comics are known for bashing celebrities, whether it's true or false. And since you mentioned them, Brad and Angie have been all over the media the last few months talking about their "private" life. Apples and oranges.

    @Karla, it's called privacy. Maybe Brad & Angie like to keep some things private. And yea, Jennifer A has nice good friends like douchbag Chelsea Handler? The same one who talked mess about Angie for stealing someone's husband, which is exactly what she did when she hooked up with E honcho Ted Harbert; yea that's one classey friend.

    @ Kelly on the bottom. I can tell you one thing for sure and that is Jennifer is a much nicer person in real life and has a lot more friends and girlfriends in real life than Brad and Angie put together. Jen is a very open type person where Brad and Angie just tell ya a little somethin somethin just because they are asked but they don't share much. Ever seen an interview?

    Jen deserves a happy birthday. We lov this beautful couple. Wish them all happiness.

  • February 14, 2012 - 9:00pm Cristina Hernandez

    Big deal, she had a party to celebrate her birthday. Everything she does is criticized. And seriously, the constant mentioning of Brad and Angelina is old. Three separate people, two separate lives.

  • February 14, 2012 - 8:50pm Jean Steele-Wren

    Yeah, Kelly, because I'm sure the great Brad and Angie don't ever celebrate their birthdays. I'm so over people bringing them into Jennifer Aniston stories. I doubt she cares what they are doing. Probably doesn't care what you or I are doing, either. Move on.

  • February 14, 2012 - 8:36pm Rebecca Christiansen

    Okay so when do you get to the age where a birthday party isn't necessary?? For me it was 22...everything before was party worthy but afterwards don't you start need to focus on others?

  • February 14, 2012 - 7:55pm Kelly McEdward Lyons

    Bet it was her own money that paid for it. So over this woman. What are Brad and Angie doing righ now.....they are far more interesting and far less wrapped up in themselves.
