To be honest anything can happen here
That marriage certificate is important.
Means someone, probably your partner, will need to chase and follow up to be sure to have it available from NSO

Take a look a this thread:-

I know it's quite old now but the principles remain, that a close and careful on the speeding up of the process is key.

Do be sure that the Local Civil Registrar's office get a copy from the place of marriage asap.
There are quite a few movements of that certificate so keep chasing.

Personally I advise getting a certified true copy asap.
It was always the case that the DFA & CFO would both honour that when NSO copy was not available.]Means very helpful for passport update and CFO seminars

Please do check this is still the case.
Always personally validate anything you find on Forums.
