If you are struggling with an important, life changing decision, try strolling through a cemetery at sunrise.  Nothing else compares when it comes to adding clarity to your life.  If that critical decision happens to involve a wedding, you might be able to save some money by staying on the property and checking out the funeral home.  A few entrepreneurial funeral directors, tired of sitting around waiting for someone to die, have diversified their businesses over the past several years.  If you’ve got a chapel with an organ, and are pretty good at planning large events on short notice, why not?  Cultural trends and the economy in general may be closing down some wedding venues, but funeral homes are here to stay.  Consumers are drawn to this idea because of greater availability, less expense, and the  elegant surroundings.  They rationalize that churches also host caskets and funerals, so what’s the difference?  Am I the only one who finds this just a bit creepy?
