Psychology
A friend marrying reflects both blessing their progress and a fear of standing still. Through the continuity hypothesis, it tends to appear when weddings are much talked about around you.
Folklore and history
Marriage has long been a major life milestone, once treated as a bond between households. Dream readers see a friend's wedding as good change around you, yet also as a hint that your friendship is shifting.

This site's view
In this site's view, where you sat is the key. Cheering from the front row means you embrace your friend's change. Watching from the back or outside hints at the loneliness of losing them. If the couple's faces were hidden, you were really looking at your own future.
Going deeper: our reading
A dream of a friend getting married sounds very different depending on your bond and your own situation. With a friend who graduated alongside you, or one you always spent time with, it may reflect a fear of being left behind as they move to the next stage of life. In this site's reading, it helps to look honestly at your feelings in the dream. Heartfelt celebration shows you can take their happiness as your own. Loneliness behind your smile hints at regret that the friendship will change. If their partner was someone you barely knew, you may feel unsettled by the growing parts of their world you do not share. This is our speculation, but the dream is less about their wedding than a sign that you have begun to ask how you want to live. Try writing down one wish of your own.
