All correct. As I'm sure you are aware, the last two cannot end with the word パーティー. The "..." part tells me you're on the right track.

「わたしのたんじょうびのパーティ」 Very awkward emphasis, but should still be (technically) correct. (meaning "My birthday party".) I may be mistaken though.

It's "correct" but too wordy and unnatural. By the same token, "The party for my birthday" is grammatically correct, too, but who would say it?

Yes. For us native speakers, 誕生日パーティー is one word.
