Hello all, Me and my fiance are planning to travel Japan for our honeymoon
Tentatively 27th Feb to 12th march.
Based on instagram and some reddit posts, I made this itinerary
Does this look okay? Is the flow and sequence okay?

I have heard since the taxis are practically unaffordable, there is a lot of walking.
It would be great if you could help me with how to cover tourist spots in a way that saves us transit time
Also- will there be any chance of spotting the cherry blossoms? If yes, where can we go for that
And any critical thing we are missing or something we should remove?
Thank you!!
