JDiver (as usual) is spot on. Differentiate between the warnings for Economy and Business class seats. You can store things in front of you in Business, although to reach "full recline/sleep" position, these will have to be moved. The issues regarding entertainment systems, etc.. is not relevant in your situation.

For the 777 this is true. The window/aisle pairs usually work best for couples. As an alternative strategy,are there any empty rows? If so you could grab the two aisles and leave the middle seat empty. The middle seat will certainly be among the last to be reserved. Depending on the flight load, you may get lucky and the seat goes out unoccupied. In the event someone does end up w/the middle seat, they will be MORE than happy to switch their middle seat for one of your aisle seats. The two of you will be sitting together but again and you'll have the "climb over issue."
