The U.S. papers from Pomona the consulate asks for

Registering a child born here and transcribing a marriage both take U.S. papers. The birth certificate comes from the California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office (CDC).

Pomona is in Los Angeles County: for a marriage license issued there, the certificate comes from the Los Angeles County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage), according to the CDC directory (CDC). That certificate, with an apostille, is what goes with the marriage transcription.

To be used in Portugal, the certificate needs an apostille: in California it is issued by the California Secretary of State (Hague Conference list).
