>the people who weren’t invited were hired at a later time when invites were sent out.

Going off of this line alone, you were hired after the bride sent out her invites. Which meant that the budget for the amount of people to invite to the wedding had been finalized, and possibly the seating arrangements if food was involved.

It would be too stressful to have to go back and find more money to budget for extra people that got hired on at work to enable them to come to the wedding. Not only would the bride need to spend more money on extra invites, they would need to spend extra money on food, seating, and all the little things that add up with inviting more people.

Put cardboard inside the pants so the following steps won’t just move the stain to the back side of the pants. Spray the spot with WD-40 to release the oil. Then form a paste of blue Dawn dishwashing liquid and baking powder. Scrub the spot with that paste using a toothbrush. Scrub it really well, occasionally blotting the area with a clean towel. Then toss the pants in the wash. If some of the stain remains, repeat the process. This really does work. This works even on set in stains.

I would have said Dawn.

I wash my clothes in Oxiclean, more than is recommended. And I put the washer on delay for one to eight hours depending on how nasty they are. They are my work clothes and sometimes get stains including food oil and grease.

Not sure this helps, but I had a six year old splotch of dried fingernail polish on a shirt. I got it out by soaking the area around it in 90% rubbing alcohol. I soaked for probably several hours putting more alcohol on it. Then I was able to rub it out. It had been washed probably a couple of times with no results. It's fine now.

I know Clorox and probably others make to go pens you can carry with you in case this happens again. Hit it on the spot and it might keep it from staining.

This sounds ridiculous, which must mean it's USA. You pay the check into the landlord's account directly, or you can do the same with cash. You do a direct deposit. You get written evidence (email) that the landlord only wants a check in an envelope to a certain address. If you have certified postage the onus is on the landlord to prove the envelope was empty. After all they could have given you a bank account number or a way to give cash in hand.

I seriously doubt you can evict tenants if the only argument is that it's uncertain whether the envelope was empty or not.
