If they're mounted they'll need regular misting Amy. Also, on the whole, they love humidity.
But some, particularly Paphiopedilum, hate getting water in the crowns. It can cause the plant to rot away.....

That is a very delicate looking one , it's had a shower !
in the Orchid house at Kew Gardens we were in there when they were spraying them all down quite heavily , I didn't think they liked that much water , I never give mine very much !
