honestly i like both. a lot. malaysia is slightly more expensive than thailand. on the other hand malaysia is so much nicer in some ways. going from thailand into malaysia is somewhat like going from mexico into california (if california was clean, lol).
there are many things to recommend each. few places are as exotic as thailand. although it is quite filthy bangkok is one of my favorite cities in the world. i would suggest very little time in bangkok, it's hard to breathe. chiang mai is a nice place in the far north. the islands in the south are great, and really cheap.
penang, also known as georgetown would be a great place for a honeymoon. a nice blend of the old and new malaysia. beautiful wide beaches. many chinese live on penang, as well as many indians, which makes for some great food.
thailand is theraveda buddhist, as am i. malaysia is moslem, they're pretty strict.
edit>>reading the other posts, i find i most agree with the beautiful young woman above me here. she is so right.

I've spent time in both, and so should you! Take a flight into Chaing Mai (Thailand) and take the train all the way to Malaysia. Make stops, enjoy the scenery, watch as the culture changes right outside your window. They even have very affordable 1st class cars.
Suggested stops: Chaing Mai/Chaing Rai, Sukothai, Bangkok, Phuket. Northern Malaysia has some rad kayaking and beautiful islands. You can even end up in Singapore for a relaxing cooling off period before your flight home.

I would pick Malaysia, not only bcoz i live there, it's bcuz I prefer M'sia.
First and foremost, i would like to explain that Malaysia is a muslim country, so what??? We still have other religion, and all races are free to practice whatever religions they want. And btw, we are democratic country here. When we (our dear politicians) have had disagreement, we (or the politicians) discuss our way in. Not by having war, like certain countries did. That is why we people (from diff race, religion, and believe) can live under one roof!
Well, for honeymoon, I would highly recommend Langkawi Island. :)

Malaysia is a safe country to visit, unlike Thailand. There are lots of varieties of food to choose from, different races of people to meet, trendy nightspots, cleaner less traffic jam (in Kuala Lumpur, compared to Bangkok). Also have less crimes! Enjoy your honeymoon! Congratulations!
