  We're just having our grandparents sit with everyone else.  My programs are rather large, so I included a family page that has parents, grandparents, and remembrance section.   My programs are stacked pieces of paper (thanks on the back).  I'm not around them to take a picture, I can later if you like.
  
  
  ETA:  If that's to blurry and you want to wording let me know and I can email it to you.

  We're doing ours on a single sheet of paper that will open and have 4 sides, technically. On the front we have a picture of us as well as a thank you for our guests. Inside we have all of the WP and family mentioned, but no grandparents. FI's can't make it and I only have my grandfather and he just got remarried a couple of years ago and it's a weird situation. We also have the order of events and will list the names of the songs we use (we're doing a separate song for me, possibly for the seating of the parents too from the BP), and the names of the readings. 

  We also have information stating the guests should visit our photo booth during the reception and to blow bubbles as we walk out. We will have a memorial section too. I'll see if I can get my mom to send me the latest so I can show you!

  Its to late for me to change, but how did you word the bubbles on exit??  We're doing the same.  I just put bubble recessional and I'll have our welcomer tell people.

  This is ours... It has our name, our wedding date, the time
  The name of our offciant... then lists our Bridal PArty...
   then says Diner and Reception to follow ceremony
  
  our Master of Cermonies name and DJ's name
  
  then a little note thanking our parents for their love and support and all our friends and family for celebrating this special day with us (written in french)
  
  then our favorite quote at the bottom
  
  *Sometimes in the middle of live, love gives us a fairytale~
  
  simple enough, we printed 50 from Vista print... I know most guests won't keep them, but FI's family is big on scrapbooking, and keepsakes etc.
  
  My son is JrGroomsman in charge of bubbles, we bought a (zillion bubbles machine) at the end of summer clearance last year... and as the offciant says I  now pronounce you man and wife... (My sons' job is to hit the button that turns on the machine) lol

  This is what I'm using too!  As far as the seating goes, you could simply put grandparents in with the rest of the guests and add them to special "thank yous", if there is space?  All of our grandparents have passed away, so they're in the Rememberance section of our program.  Also, (eventhough it is scary over there...) you may want to check the e<span class="st"><font color="#000000">tiquette board?</font></span>

  Since I have a small wedding party and short aisle it was recommended by my musicians to just use the same song for everyone walking down the aisle but me.  But if you don't have to do it that way.  If your musicians are just doing random music for when the guests are arriving, than the parents (and grandfather if you choose) can just sit down to that music.  Then the WP can start walking down the aisle to whatever song you want them to walk down towards.
  
  You can choose to do it whatever way you want to do it.  That seems to be the lesson that everyone (minister, music director, church wedding coordinator) keeps trying to drill into me.  There is no right or wrong way for you to do these things.
