JR Pass and normal ticket travelling together?

I will be in Japan on an "entertainer" visa and will stay an extra week to travel in Japan with my husband after the tour. Because of my visa I am not able to get a JR Pass, but my husband can. Is there any problem for a couple travelling with a JR Pass and a normal ticket? Extra waiting in lines, problems getting seat reservations together etc? The travels with my husband are just Tokyo-Kyoto return, inside Tokyo and Tokyo-Narita return, so the JR Pass is not much cheaper than normal tickets. So I'm wondering if it is worth the hassle of travelling with 2 different types of ticket or whether we should just both buy normal tickets? Thanks for your help!
