I would not be shy about making that crystal clear.

Have you reminded them that they still owe a deposit unless someone else decides to go in their place? I would make it VERY clear that you are not shelling out that kind of money as a gift to their lazy, inconsiderate ways.

Christa said it best. Either you come and pay for yourself or at every function we will be looking for our money Well said ladies! If the $ can't be transferred to you and your FI, then they defitenly owe you, especially since they knew you were putting the deposit down to begin with. Someone needs to tell them to on how things work, b/c that is not cool!
Hope you're feeling better today
