Birthday Party Drama: AITA for Not Rescheduling my Party?

A man born on a leap year is causing conflict in his family after his stepmom asked to reschedule his birthday party for her son’s benefit. The stepmom had planned a vacation during the original party date, but when she found out about the celebration, she asked to move it to a later date. The man refused , stating that his close family members couldn’t attend the new date. The stepmom is upset that her son won’t be able to attend the family gathering and says that this may be the last chance for everyone to get together. The man’s father is currently out of the country and not involved in the argument. Do you think the man is being unreasonable or is his stepmom overreacting?
