“Today I am celebrating 40 years of being on this planet,” she captioned a photo of herself via Instagram on Friday. “Life is wonderful and I am so grateful for all the amazing people in mine. Thank you for all the birthday wishes, my heart is full.”

The space boasted tons of confetti flying as breakdancers performed on stage. The famous Ectomobile from the ’80s Ghostbusters films also made an appearance.

Other guests included Scott’s twin brother Drew Scott and his wife Linda Phan, who showed off their colorful ensemble on social media. Scott’s parents were also all dressed up and ready to party.

Scott posted a special tribute to his lady love on Instagram Friday.

“Happy Birthday to the beautiful human who brought joy & laughter back into my life,” he wrote.

Deschanel responded in the comments, “I’m the luckiest girl.”

The pair met while shooting an episode of Carpool Karaoke in August, just one month before she announced her split from husband Jacob Pechenik. The pair said in a statement they had been separated for “several months.”
