My wife and I know zero Vietnamese, so we're expecting some difficulty, but I'm not sure exactly how much to expect

I'd say you'll probably have the least problems in Hoi An. They cater to tourists very well.

Hanoi and Saigon will be hit and miss. You'll be fine at hotels and most restaurants, but maybe 50/50 otherwise. We stayed and ate at some obscure places where English was very minimal, so my GF was a savior in those situations.
