mothers day/ birthday visitation

My step-daughter has a birthday on mothers day and it is her fathers year to have her on her birthday. So which takes priority cause my wife should have her on the whole weekend of mothers day but her daughters birthday is the same day may 10th. So i was wondering which guidelines to go by for the visitation so no one gets in trouble.
