I'd vote for putting your plant in a plastic pot with excellent drainage and then find a decorative pot that you like to insert the plastic pot into after you complete the water/drain cycle. Often times orchids come like this and people are just not aware that there is another pot inside due to decorative top dressings over the media or the fit is so tight that it is just not noticed. Every few months you want to pour a good quantity of water THROUGH your media to flush away excess mineral deposits - this will require good drainage.
