Idk anymore. I feel like I’m the only one overreacting about it. She still doesn’t know about the birthday thing though.

Baobaozi - no you definitely are not overreacting. Your feelings are valid. Please appreciate you don't need permission to feel this way. You are a good person whether you do or do not organize something.
It is obvious that Mom and daughter are clinging to one another. Mom has unfortunately helicoptered over her child's life. The apron strings need to be cut at some point anyway and maybe now is the time to do such.
You can still help celebrate this young lady's special day without organizing it all.
