After your married the local civil registrar reports your marriage to the NSO, then after about 3 weeks you can apply to the NSO for CENMAR, "Certificate of Marriage". This is what you need, and you need about 4 certified copies of this. Also certified copies of Birth Certificate.

Also to change a passport or get a passport in married name you will need to attend the CFO Guidance and Counseling program and get your certificate first before you can apply for a passport. There is no need to get in a hurry, all this takes time, you must wait until you have all the necessary documents before going to CFO. You will need 2 ID's in married name. Postal ID, BC, CENMAR, NBI police clearance showing married name will work.

Takes about 3 weeks to get CENMAR, takes about 4 to 6 weeks to get passport.

I would advise to start a new topic, rather that jumble it into this one.
