I was studying, and I heard noises coming from the other room. I went there, and found that they were just happy, laughing, joking and congratulating as somebody had been engaged.
Which word can I use to describe what was happening in other room?

I don't know a single word that would replace "a group of noisy people". There's a whole bunch of adjectives that could describe that group of people - amongst synonyms of noisy (bolding ones that would match the situations best),:
chattering, disorderly, ear-popping, ear-splitting, loudmouth, rackety, raising Cain, raising the roof, rambunctious, riotous, rowdy, screaming, tumultous/tumultuous, turned up, uproarious
and quite a few nouns to describe the situation - synonyms of ruckus
disturbance, big scene, bother, brawl, commotion, disorder, disruption, fray, fuss, hubbub, racket, stir, turmoil, upheaval, uproar
Gaggle
" was the first word than sprang into my mind

I think loud crowd can be a good term for it or a loud room or loud people. Surely as StoneyB said your question doesn't make it clear what you mean of "to describe what happening in other room"
They were a raucous group!
Not exactly a commonly used word these days, but I think most english speakers would still know what it means as it still gets used in writing fairly often.
You can have raucous crowds, a raucous party, raucous laughter, etc.
Gaggle - Group of noisy people
You have a few options to describe a noisy group of people, depending on the context of your thought. You might choose different words depending on whether or not they bother you, for instance.
If you do not find them annoying. these tend to have a positive connotation:
If you do find them annoying, these have a negative connotation:
As mentioned in previous answers, mob, gaggle, cacophony could be used,
if you are looking in context of people who gossip loudly, "Klatsch" is a germanic word, which could be used.
Boisterous is the perfect word. It means loud, rowdy, energetic people. One definition found at Wordnik is:
boisterous (adj.) Turbulent; rough and noisy; clamorous: applied to persons or their actions: as, a boisterous man; boisterous merriment; a boisterous game.
