As it was a register office marriage there may have been several other couples who married that day. Also being on the same page does not mean they were married on the same day.

Even if you know there were only two marriages on that day you need to check the previous and subsequent pages which will give you another four possible couples.

Find your friend's marriage on freebmd

https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Click on the page number and hopefully it will show another couple with the same index numbers.
This has just worked for me. I happen to remember the name of the other bride who married at the same church on the day we married.
