Does your son and (soon to be) DIL have some favorite colors? How much time do you have? Depending upon your time and skill level also can make a difference on the pattern you pick. IMHO any pattern works for a 'wedding quilt'.
good luck

Something as major of a project as a quilt, I think it's nice if the Bride and Groom can have input. Their fabric choices, and/or their colours and/or their pattern. You could get them involved for one or all of these, and if not all, then they can still have the surprise.

My step son got married last year. After hemming and hawing over her favorite colors, I went ahead and made the quilt I wanted to make. If they don't like it, it won't bother me, and I had the fun of making it.
I have the feeling if they don't like it, his mom will probably "borrow" it. She's already taken custody of his 21st birthday quilt, LOL.
