Pins and external fixators, oh my!

I broke my wrist in multiple places. I have an external fixator and some pins.Will this cast stay on?
The cast is hard in some areas and just Ace bandaged in others, and it's up past my elbow. I'm not sure if this stays on the entire 6 weeks or so that I have the external fixator and pins, or if it comes off after a week or so, like with a plate, and the pins and fixator stay. I'm in a wedding Saturday!
