Well, you didn't seem to take much away from this discussion, so go do what you want to do. Not sure why you even asked for help. I hope your future spouse likes RR stations and airports. Good luck.

London: skip the hoho bus. I know it gets recommended as a way to get an overview of the city and stave off jet lag but I feel like it's a bit of a waste of time. I'd rather explore less bits of the city than wizz past a bunch of sites, or more likely be stuck in traffic staring at the back of another bus. Having said that I have taken one -- in the beginning of November. We sat on top of course and nearly FROZE! If you go, grab a cup of something hot to keep warm.
Have you already bought your Harry Potter tickets? They must be purchased in advance. Unless your die hard fans, I'd give it a miss. It will take up your whole day and leave you with no exploring time (or energy) for the evening. Again, I've done it and it was enjoyable but only as a day trip ( we live here) not as a day in my once in a lifetime trip.
You can always make a quick trip to King Cross and take your photo at platform 9 3/4!
My last bit of advice is to take the pressure off. Yes, go, go, go, see everything and come home exhausted but don't feel like this really is the trip of a your life. You'll come back. We took our trip of a lifetime in 2004 and moved here in 2007. If you love travel, if you love Europe (and I expect you will) you'll find a way to come back.
