Hive Wood okay to have dissimilar wood

I have scrap wood. Can make hive bodies from pine and frames from cedar. Okay to mix wood types within a hive? I'll be putting the cedar frames within pine Langstroth hive bodies. I treat all hive parts with boiling bees wax, although the cedar I will not (except along the inside of the frame to promote comb adherence).

Cheers,
