As long as you know the difficulties then I say go for it.

Vanda's want to have their roots exposed so pots will be difficult but can work.

They also want a lot of water. Read the thread on Worm Tea, especially since it was started over a beginner's first orchid (a Vanda) and not knowing how to care for it. Worm Tea - further testing -accerated growth rate

You want to keep the plant roots plump with water without rotting them. Putting them outside in the summer is usually enough to get them to flower. All orchids can live in lower than optimum light. The light level is more important for flowering.
