Yes the NSO birth certificate and marriage certificate (CEMAR) are the ones.

At NVC level, they required all original except for photocopy of passport page. Marriage contract and abirth certificate. Also have her get marraige index or CENOMAR ( certificate of marraige for married on) this may be asks during the interview at the embassy level.

docs from NSO are originals.....

[let-it-be 36]

The ones you get from NSO are CERTIFIED COPIES. These are the ones NVC & other gov't agencies are asking for.
