From a theological standpoint, why isn’t the Church against widows remarrying

If there is an afterlife, isn’t it going to be super awkward when your spouse and their new husband dies and you all end up in Heavens ? Who is the husband at this point ?

Depends on the religion or denomination. In the LDS church, for example (the only such example I know with this theology), marriage is eternal. I haven’t specifically looked into whether this means that people who lost a spouse to death cannot remarry in that church, but I suspect that it would have some implications.
