The problem, that I have with all "Trelawney got kidnapped" theories 
is, that canon IMO suggests, that she *was* at the funeral. Granted, 
she wasn't mentioned by name, but neither was Madam Pomfrey, for 
example. Here is, what canon has to say. "The staff were seated last" 
(p.598, UK edition). Not the staff except Trelawney, but the staff. 
This, to me, suggests, that she was there. Not kidnapped, not taking 
out of the castle by Dumbledore for reasons I still don't understand 
(if he didn't expect to die this night, than why did he want Trelawney 
to leave the castle anyway?), but at the funeral.
