I honestly believe its where you are in the USA and who you know.   You're right the lifestyle is vastly different. I am not sure its a better standard of living, just a different standard of living, bigger houses for sure. (Gosh I sounded American). Different way of doing things too I do believe that food is probably more sociable here whereas in England as we both well know as soon as the sun is out, which is rare we all have a barbecue with beer or go to the pub for a drink in the beer garden I don't do that personally as I'm not a day time drinker.  We adore our weekends where we go to restaurants and pubs. We tend not to go to restaurants as much during the week as its far too expensive unless you're rich. Here I'v found that we tend to dine out far more and think nothing of it.  
 
I think you need to have a long hard think about moving over here to be with your wife and weigh up your options whether or not it would be better if she came over to England instead, the only trouble I conceive with that is she may have a big culture shock too. My husband and I are still thinking about going to England, its a HUGE move for him at his age and an even bigger gamble, so we won't rush into any immediate decision as I hope you and your wife dont.

Living together is hard, especially after doing long distance. My husband and I had our challenges in the first couple of months, but talking and being honest and kind to each other got us through it. As for cultural differences - I'm from Eastern Europe and he is American - as cultural differences go, it's like the moon and the sun. But simply being from a certain place in the world doesn't define you entirely. You say England is a culture of drinking - as someone who travels to England often and has many English friends, I can't disagree with you more. Drinking is not the number one defining characteristic of your culture. Don't blame your country for your own shortcomings - own up to your mistakes and make efforts to be there for your wife. As someone who has also given up on a great job, great apartment, close group of friends and financial security to move to a foreign country to be with "the one", giving up on all those things was the easy part - it's being there for each other day after day and building your marriage that is the hard part. Good luck!
