Default Moving flowering orchid?

Would it be ok to move the orchid once all the flowers are open? I have a dendrobium that's currently flowering that i would like to move to a brighter area.

I would suggest if all the flowers are open, you can move it to a shady area to prolong the flowers.

This is true...once fully blooming, a cooler environment prolongs the life of the blooms.
In fact, many of us anticipate the bloom cycle and maneuver plants around the home as such
