What is the Army's policy on wearing ASUs to non-military events such as their own wedding, graduation, etc?

Don’t wear it to graduation. You can wear it to a wedding if you want.

Don’t wear it to draw attention to yourself. Military functions and your wedding I’d say would be all.

AR 670-1 11-3 (Dtd May 2017)

11–3. Occasions for wear
a. All-purpose wear. The male service/dress uniform is authorized for wear on and off duty, on and off the installation, unless restricted by the commander. The male service/dress uniform is not intended for wear as an all- purpose uniform when other uniforms are more appropriate.
b. Approved wear. The male service/dress uniform is prescribed for year-round wear for all Soldiers, unless otherwise directed by the commander. Soldiers may wear variations of the male service/dress uniform:
(1) On duty when prescribed by the local commander.
(2) At social functions of a private or official nature, either before or after retreat, and while in transit to and from such functions. The male service/dress uniform is normally considered appropriate for social or official functions off the
installation, such as memorial services, funerals, weddings, inaugurals, patriotic ceremonies, and similar functions.
(3) When designated by the host of an event

Unless restricted by your commander or the location serves alcohol, then you can wear ASU's to Weddings, graduations and the like. However while you can, observe whether you should.

Wear it with pride and IAW Army regulations.
