To me, 23 seems so young (granted, I don't know these people so I really can't say and don't want to be judgmental about their reasons for getting married).

I got married just after turning 24 (my wife was 23, about to turn 24); we did it because we'd been living together for over two years, we loved each other, and the time was right.
A 23 year old could have just as good a reason for getting married as a 35 year old, so I don't see what the age has to do with it. That said, I agree that you shouldn't compare yourself to your friends if you're worried about marriage. For some people it happens earlier in life, for others, later.
