According to a People source on Thursday:
“It was actually epic — it was a real friends and family thing… It was like the closest people in her life and you could tell by the way she said hello to everyone that it wasn’t work.”
The If You Had My Love singer arrived to the bash around 9 p.m. wearing a sexy Versace dress while fiancé Alex Rodriguez donned a dapper black suit and tie.
Most of the female attendees wore gold, while most of the men were dressed in white.
The function featured a fabulous buffet, including a huge caviar bar!
“Right before the buffet stations opened, Alex made a toast… He thanked the Estefan’s for having them and said how proud he is of Jennifer on this tour.”
The insider continued:
“After dinner, everybody moved to the dance floor portion of the tent and encircled it… The cast of her [It’s My Party] tour performed medleys and montages of her songs, and she watched with Alex and her kids and her mom. Then there was a fireworks show over the water.”
Once it was time to dance the night away, both DJ Cassidy and DJ Don Hot spun tunes for the excited crowd.
At one point, four men carried J.Lo’s 10-tier gold and black birthday cake — decorated with white and yellow flowers, sparklers, rhinestones, and shiny fleur-de-lis — on the dance floor.
“It must have been a 12-foot tall cake.”
After the cake presentation, the DJ started playing 50 Cent’s, In Da Club, which got everybody turnt up!
“Everyone started screaming ‘Go J. Lo, it’s your birthday! Party like it’s your birthday!'”
Famous musical guests included DJ Khaled, Fat Joe, and Ashanti, who all got on stage to perform their biggest songs.
“That whole performance was when [Lopez] went crazy. And when they played her song that DJ Khaled is on, Dinero, her dancers picked her up on their shoulders and she sang along. The DJ and all the music she loves was a major part of the party.”
That night, the former baseball player shared a clip on IG, commemorating the special event.
Not to be outdone, on Thursday, Miz Lopez also posted clips and photos from her soirée!
