Me too I tend to keep all my orchids on the dry side during the cool/cold months, while they are in the greenhouses. Thus all of my epiphytic orchids, which compose 95% of what I grow, do dry out completely between watering. I do try to mist all my plants at least every other day and on nice, sunny days (though the outside temperature may still be in the 30-40's), I try to mist them daily. The only ill-effects that I see (other than perhaps a bit slower growth) is some shriveling of some of the varieties' pseudobulbs and some shriveling of a few of my varieties' leaves.
