What type of wood for a DIY painted (white) bathroom vanity?

As a follow up from my post below, I'm about 90% certain dh will be building at least the cabinet box for a built-in dresser and vanity. We may buy the drawer fronts and cabinet doors, though since I want Shaker style, he may build those too.
I will honestly say, dh's finish work and painting skills are not the best so I'm really going to have to do my research to make sure we do it correctly and nothing warps over time.
I am 100% certain I want white painted cabinets. Can someone point me in the right direction to what type of wood we should choose? Also, if we buy the drawer fronts and doors, we would finish them ourselves, right? So we could guarantee they would match? Or am I missing something?
Thanks SO much for your guidance!

Below is a link to a vanity that makes me swoon :)
