The big day is finally here. Jax Taylor turned 40 years old on Thursday, July 11, and the Vanderpump Rules bartender definitely rang in the big 4-0 in style.

How to Watch

Watch Vanderpump Rules on Peacock and the Bravo app.  

Jax had a (mostly) boys' night out that began at — where else — SUR and ended at Tom Tom on Wednesday, July 10. Stassi Schroeder's boyfriend, Beau Clark, Lala Kent, and her fiancé, Randall Emmett, were also on hand to make sure Jax entered the next decade of his life with an unforgettable celebration, all of which was captured in Lala's Instagram Story.

When the clock struck midnight, making it officially Jax's 40th birthday on July 11, Randall climbed atop the bar at Tom Tom and delivered the most epic speech we've ever heard. "I want to say one thing. I don't come out a lot, but this night is my friend and Tom's best friend, this old motherf--ker Jax Taylor is turning 40," Randall proudly exclaimed. "Let me say one thing: Jax, you have mad love for all your friends, for all your people. You have the biggest heart in the f--king world. And tonight, at 12 midnight right now, we celebrate you. We f--king love you! So let's sing 'Happy F--king Birthday!'"

Lala then showed in her Instagram Story that several shots had been poured to honor Jax. We have a feeling he had a very happy birthday indeed.

Jax also commemorated his big birthday on Twitter.

Even before he officially turned 40, Jax had a pretty awesome start to the next chapter of his life. The SURver wed Brittany Cartwright in front of many of their loved ones at the Kentucky Castle on June 29. Of course, Lala and Randall were there to take part in their friends' big day.
