I got married in Mexico. And our judge told us to get every legal document an "apostille".
This is a small square paper that goes on the back of any legal document that you want to
get recognized in every country. The paper has a seal, among other legal signatures. With
this you shouldn't have any problems around the world. You can get apostilles for almost
any document, birth certificates, marriage certificates, school diplomas, etc.
You can check more info about it, on this official site.

Good luck.
