Hello Llemay,
You've got a tough one there.
MOG Mary Johnson and George French
MOF William Johnson and Rebecca Wallace
I would not list anything further than that. Hopefully if I'm wrong Rhonda or Rebecca will help us out here. Nancy Tucker President of Weddings Beautiful US http://www.weddingsbeautiful.com

Dear Divorced Parents,
You could list them as, mother of groom: Ms. MOG and escort, Mr. Escort. The same for the father.
These people shouldn't be sitting together unless they are very good friends. Typically the mother and her escort would sit in the front row with the father and his companion in the third. This usually works out fine.

It is best to have a row in between divorced spouses.
The second row typically seats siblings and grandparents. The third row seats divorced spouses, their companions, and special guests--aunts, uncles, godparents... Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now

Mother and Father of Groom get along well. Is it still unappropriate to be seated in the same row? And if it is, then Father and significant other should be in the third row, and Mother and spouse in the first? Who else is in the first row?

If they all get along fine, they should all sit together. No worries.
It is the mother's choice who sits with her in the front row--typically. Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now
