As a US Citizen, I don't think you will need a Visa.
As for your wife you need to complete an online application from the website you mentioned.
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/countries/usa/applying/?langname=UK%20English
On the upper right side, you can start the application. You can always save it, come back later and finish it and submit it.
Print a copy at the end of submission OR you can always log back in and print it later at your convenience too. At the end of submission you will be given an option to schedule your Biometrics appointment with Application Support Center just like I-485 with option for all available dates/time. Print the Biometric appointment form upon submission.
Once you schedule and complete your biometrics, mail the completed online application form, your STAMPED biometic appointment notice, specified size photo, together with all supporting documents to UK Border Agency in New York. When submitting your online application you'd have paid $12 fee for them to return your package. I think the cost of application is $132; I think that $12 mail return fee is also included in that.
As for the supporting docs- a colored copy of notorized GC, employment letter, few paystubs- if working, OR just proof how u r going to support ur travel to UK and won't be a burdan to their welfare system. The website says to submit your Itinerary too; all I did was submitted a tentative itineray from Kayak and wrote a cover letter saying buying the ticket would be the first thing I'd do upon receipt of Visa
If you have relatives/frens you can always give their address/info as the place you would be staying, that helps otherwise they might look for hotel booking info.
Good Luck
