Rule 20: Lifting Dropping and Placing; Playing from Wrong Place

My friend and I hit our tee shots into the front right bunker on a par-3. Our balls ended up within a few inches of each other. We were not sure how to proceed, so I marked my ball with a tee so my friend could hit his shot. After he hit I put my ball back and hit my shot. Is this correct? Can you explain the proper procedure?
