So much love. So much warmth. So much happiness.<\/p>\n

Every year we are simply amazed at the\u00a0immense talent and creativity that we see in all photos submitted for our annual #SavvySakura photo contest. This year, however, the contest theme was “Sakura with the family<\/a>” and we couldn’t help but be deeply touched by the love that sparkled through every post we received. From photos of precious babies having their very first hanami to maternity photography under the pink canopy to a casual picnic in the park with your partners to family reunions under the cherry blossom trees and, of course, adorable pets\u00a0lost in the pink petals\u2026we couldn\u2019t help but smile as we were looking through the photos.<\/p>\n

This year, once again we received over 300 submissions via Instagram<\/a>, Facebook<\/a>, Twitter<\/a> and e-mail. We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who contributed \u2014 you certainly made it extremely<\/em> difficult to narrow this list down to 10. Every photo submitted for this contest had a creative story behind it that reminded us once again that more than just the natural beauty of the sakura season, it’s spending it with your nearest and dearest that makes it so special!<\/p>\n

So here they are, our grand winners, from No. 10 to No. 1. The lucky No. 1 gets our amazing prize \u2014 a family-sized picnic basket filled with various sakura-inspired goodies, plus a few extras.<\/p>\n

And for those who didn\u2019t win this time \u2014 stay tuned for more contests coming up very soon!! Thank you all! #SavvySakura2019<\/p>\n
