Heck, whatever floats your boat. The deceased doesn't care, and it sounds like good solid capitalism to me to have a site double as a cemetary AND a wedding reception hall.

Although I'm not sure I would eat there.

Burn me and throw the ashes in the ocean...unless that requires an Environmental Impact Statement these days.

And whether they are looking for a "greener" place or way to bury a loved one,

What would be more "green" than to be buried in a wooden coffin under your favorite tree?

At least the tree would benefit from the remains as it decomposes, rather than just the soil's pH being conditioned by the spreading of cremated ashes, or, worse yet, the remains held captive in a concrete vault surrounding a steel casket.

We put way too much emphasis on the dead, beyond celebrating their lives and achievements, worrying instead about how the manner of burial will resist nature reclaiming its own.
