Courteney & Jen's Major BFF Milestones

by Caitlyn Callegari

If you experience a defining moment in your life but your best friend wasn't there to witness it, was it really a defining moment at all? Yeah, I don't think so. Assuming she's a true believer of that sentiment, Jennifer Aniston had Courteney Cox as her maid of honor at her, alleged, wedding. Something tells me it would not have been half as special without her friend of 21 years there by her side. Besides what true confidant wouldn't want to witness their best friend solidifying her happiness and pledging her commitment to the sexy as hell Justin Theroux? Not a very good one, that's for certain.

Bridesmaid duties aside, Aniston and Cox have had each others backs for the better part of two decades now. Sure, they were co-workers and spent a considerable amount of time with each other, but that closeness in proximity sparked a closeness in life. These two women have gone through some serious milestones together and have done so by continually honoring each other in special ways. I know, I know, I'm getting the Friends feels, too. It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside to know that the show about friends sparked this real friendship that has carried them through life altering events.

Here are some of the milestones the two actresses and best friends have experienced together.

Perhaps not in as big of a role, since according to People she just attended Aniston's wedding to Brad Pitt, but now the upgrade to maid of honor seems even more heartfelt.

Can't think of a better way to honor your friend than to trust them with your kid's life.

The Daily Mail relays that Aniston told More Magazine ,

There’s absolutely no judgment in Court. You’ll never feel scolded. She’s extremely fair, ridiculously loyal and fiercely loving. I’ve slept in her guest bedroom a lot. Without giving away too much of my private stuff, all I can say is she’s been there for me through thick and thin.

Which, the publication asserts, "includes her painful 2005 divorce from actor Brad Pitt."

Just Before I Go was Cox's directorial debut in film, and Aniston was there to support her. Cox also directed some episodes of Cougar Town and a TV movie and a short entitled, TalhotBlond and The Monday Before Thanksgiving.

Just imagine a Thanksgiving with Aniston, Cox, and Ed Sheeran — because it happened!

I think it's safe to say we can expect a lot more Aniston-Cox friendship feels in the future.
