Jessica, who turned 48 on August 9 is the only daughter of Kate and ex-husband Robert Capshaw.
Grey's Anatomy actress Jessica is married to Christopher Gavigan who is one of the co-founders of Jessica Alba's The Honest Company and the pair share four children.
The couple were seen posing with son Luke, 17, and daughters Eve, 13, Poppy, 12, and Josephine, eight as they headed to their family celebration.
Steven and Kate have been married for over three decades, after meeting when he cast her as female lead Willie Scott in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom in 1984.
They tied the knot in October 1991 and share five children together, Sasha Rebecca, Sawyer Avery, Destry Allyn and adopted children Theo and Mikaela George.
The couple are also step-parents to each others' children from their first marriages, Jessica and Max Samuel Spielberg.
Steven was previously married to actress Amy Irving from 1985 to 1989, while Kate was married to marketing manager Robert Capshaw from 1976 to 1980.
Earlier this year, Steven revealed he had no regrets about turning down the offer to helm the first Harry Potter film in 2001, because it enabled him to watch his children grow up.

The Oscar winner had the chance to make Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the first movie in the wizarding franchise based on J.K. Rowling's novels - but decided to bypass the opportunity to spend time with his family.
In a conversation for Reliance Entertainment with Indian director SS Rajamouli, Steven explained: 'There were several films I chose not to make.
'I chose to turn down the first Harry Potter to basically spend the next year and a half with my family, my young kids growing up.'

He added: 'So I'd sacrificed a great franchise, which today looking back I'm very happy to have done, to be with my family.
'Kate and I started raising a family and we started having children. The choice I had to make in taking a job that would move me to another country for four of five months where I wouldn't see my family every day.'
