What is the seat height? My wife is only about 5'3".

It says 29.7 inches. I'm 5 foot and will most likely need to change the seat and maybe do some other mods. Your wife might be good to go.

As a point of reference, my dad's Softtail has a 26.2" seat height. While the grom is small, it doesn't ride any lower than a typical motorbike. Even my Triumph Sprint is in the 29" range for seat height.

Would you just get a thinner seat?

Or possibly lower the bike with suspension modifications?

The seat is narrow compared to a sportbike or cruiser so it will feel lower. I would also expect the bike to sag some under rider weight(don't tell the girls I said so thought).

Shaving the seat is pretty easy also.

I also used to ride with a girl that had her ridding boots made into 1 inch platforms so she did not have to lower her bike.

Making it work.
