What country ? 
Where did you get  married? Please fill out your timeline. 
In Bosnia and Herzegovina birth certificate gets updated when you marry and you need an affidavit of eligibilty to marry prior the civil ceremony. 

As for a stepson, your marriage certificate to his dad as a proof of relationship.

Hello.. 

my stepson is in the philippines. 
my husband and i got married here in the US

If the father is a Filipino then CENOMAR is a document that outright states that the person listed was never married. That'd be a definite proof that your husband was never previously married (or only married to you). Otherwise a sworn statement from your husband explaining the circumstances (i.e. never married, had the kid out of wedlock, eventually married you) should be enough, especially if your husband already got his green card since in that case USCIS (and possibly DOS) already looked at the bona fides and agreed that you were legally able to marry each other.

 

Steparent-stepchild is a second-order relationship. So basically you -> husband -> stepson. In this case it'd be your marriage certificate and stepson's birth certificate, since it's out of wedlock some proof of legitimization like a child support settlement, proof of payment for the care, or a sworn statement from husband acknowledging the kid and agreeing to financially support him, will likely be required too.
