My husband and I will be celebrating our third wedding anniversary in Vienna. I'm looking for recommendations of how to celebrate (as if just being in Vienna weren't already enough!). It'll be at the end of a two-week excursion through the Czech Republic and Austria, and we'll have already spent 4 days in Vienna. Overall, we're trying to do this trip fairly inexpensively, but we wouldn't mind splurging for a great meal or other experience on this special occasion.
Looking forward to your recommendations! :)

Reserve at all the above.
For fun and good wine, go in the evening to Weinhof Zimmermann and sit in the garden while watching the sun set over the vineyards:

You could always have dinner in one of the cabins of the Ferris Wheel. Here is a link which is in German, but if you are interested, write them an email in English and I'm sure they'll respond in English.

You could also take a horse and carriage ride (starting points at Hofburg and St. Stephans).
You could kiss in front of Klimt's Kiss at the Belvedere.
