Perry, who was best known for playing Chandler Bing on the sitcom Friends from 1994 to 2004, was found dead in his Los Angeles home on October 28. He was 54 years old.
Aniston said "Oh boy this one has cut deep," in the heartfelt tribute.
"Matty, I love you so much and I know you are now completely at peace and out of any pain.
"Rest little brother."
She shared a text she received from Perry "out of nowhere" with a photo of the pair laughing on set.
"Making you laugh just made my day. It made my day," Perry said in the text.
Fellow former cast mates Lisa Kudrow and David Schwimmer also honoured Perry on Instagram, a day after Courteney Cox and Matt LeBlanc also shared their own tributes.
Schwimmer was grateful for "ten incredible years of laughter and creativity".
While Kudrow said he had made her laugh every day "so hard that my muscles ached, and tears poured down my face".
Cast mates share memories of beloved friend
Courteney Cox, whose character Monica Geller married Chandler on the hit show, shared a tribute on Instagram on November 15.
"I am so grateful for every moment I had with you Matty and I miss you every day," she said, alongside a scene of the pair acting together on the show.
"When you work with someone as closely as I did with Matthew, there are thousands of moments I wish I could share," she said.
"For now here's one of my favourites ... he was funny and he was kind."
Just hours earlier Matt LeBlanc also took to Instagram to share photos of the cast mates to "say goodbye".
"The times we had together are honestly among the favourite times of my life," he said.
"It was an honour to share the stage with you and to call you my friend.
"I will always smile when I think of you and I'll never forget you. Never.
"Spread your wings and fly brother you're finally free. Much love."
Ending with a joke he said, "and I guess you're keeping the 20 bucks you owe me".

"There is so much to say, but right now we're going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss," the statement said.
