    If you want it to be in wrapping paper, I think you still have to have the plain brown/white kind of paper on the outside. Get creative and decorate a plain box with marking pens, felt, glitter, etc. Then wrap in plain paper at least on the top where the address goes. I just use boxes I get from the grocery store, no matter what it advertises. You can always ask the post office. Do not use masking tape as per P. O. request. It sometimes jams their machines. Just use clear tape.

    The wedding was so wonderful, romantic, pulled off the surprise of the century. Need to check back about 3-4 pages for "and the Honeymoon begins" post.

    I am fairly certain you can mail it in wrapping paper as long as the label is very legible.

    I wrapped one of my packages in the brown paper and DH took it to the post office and they told him that they charge almost $3 extra because of the brown paper. She said they have recently started enforcing that rule. She also told him they don't charge that extra fee if you send it Priority.

    All it is is a CD. Does not weigh that much at all.
