My sister and I bake a lot of wedding cakes and vanilla is usually the most popular, with some fillings here and there which are usually apricot, and strawberry. Best vanilla cake really depends on your taste. There's a lot great vanilla cakes out there. Vanilla rates number 1 in my book. And if you're getting married, please warn the people if your cake is almond or lemon or something that looks like vanilla but isn't.
Citrus Flavors-Orange, Lemon, Lime. Combination fruit and citrus cakes (rasberry and lime) The Citrus cakes do well with Chiffon as the cake base and simple syrups derived from the actual fruit you are using (Citrus only) Stay away from Blood Orange as a flavor-because it is inconsistent. Liquor Based Cakes are really big right now-especially Grand Marnier. Fruit-But it depends on what is in season.
This is a pretty loaded question, because with out knowing preferences, I can't really answer. But if you want a good source with International and American Recipe's visit CakeChannel.com
Decoration doesn't always have to be edible in the cake market. Food and Wine had an issue of best Wedding Cakes-you could try browsing through their archives too.
One other warning-Unless you are familiar with working with Fondant-you might want to try finding someone who is or looking for non-fondant (sp) cakes.
