The U.S. Embassy in Uzbekistan is not open to the general public to visit.
The U.S. Embassy cannot issue replacement or certified copies of U.S. birth certificates, death certificates, or marriage certificates. You can apply for a copy or request an amendment through the Vital Records Office in the state in which the event occurred:

There is information and resources available on the Department of State’s website https://travel.state.gov/content/travel.html which include tips on how to protect yourself and your money from scams.
On the website select “International Travel,” select “Emergencies,” and follow the guidance under “International Financial Scams.”
You are not required to report your marriage to the U.S. Embassy.
In general, marriages that are legally performed and valid abroad are also legally valid in the United States. However, each U.S. state has its own marriage regulations. Therefore, you should contact the relevant state’s attorney general to check whether your marriage and marriage certificate will be valid there.
Contact your local police to report a crime in progress or to report a missing person. They can contact Interpol for overseas crime.
