How can a wedding receiving line be shortened for guests who cannot stand for long?

Direct answer
Offer a seated or shorter greeting arrangement and let guests who cannot stand comfortably bypass a long receiving line.
Ask what assistance they want and assign a host to guide them without a public explanation of their health. Position seating and photographs so people do not have to repeat difficult transfers. Tell the photographer and announcer how the arrangement works. Equal welcome does not require identical queuing, and an accessible greeting should be planned rather than offered only after someone becomes distressed.
