Easter did not exist before Jesus rose from the dead, just as Christmas did not exist before he was born. Because Easter occurs on different days throughout the years, it is safe to say that Jesus did not rise on the exact day of Easter. It was commemorated as a holiday to remember Jesus' death and resurrection, just like Christmas has been dedicated to his birth.
Matthew 28:5-7 says this:
5The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you."
