I went to a really excellent, spiritual-feeling but non-religious, full of diverse live music funeral at the Armory in Somerville. It was organized by the family and friends, and one of the friends who had enough distance to keep it together led the service. I'm not at all sure how important the space was to how effective that funeral was, but that's what's your #3 brought to mind for me.
*edit* actually it was a memorial service, not technically a funeral -- the remains were not present. Which ties into what tb said.
