====Ravenstahl officiates wedding for Turtle Creek mayor====
:By Justin Vellucci, TRIBUNE-REVIEW, December 20, 2008 
Time -- and the amount of it one takes before forging a path in public service -- figured high on the list of talking points when Turtle Creek Mayor Adam Forgie, 31, and Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl, 28, met at a conference of municipal leaders this spring.
"He knew there was another young mayor (in the region)," said Forgie, who was elected mayor in Turtle Creek three years ago at the age of 28. "We both thought it was great we were given the opportunity to serve at such a young age."
This weekend, though, the two young mayors might have had something a little more timeless on their minds. Ravenstahl officiated the marriage of Forgie and his fiance, Allison McNutt, in a civil ceremony Saturday afternoon at the Edgewood Country Club, 100 Churchill Road.
Forgie said he and McNutt -- who were engaged in February 2008 -- asked Ravenstahl to do the honors in September 2008.
"He was very receptive to it," Forgie said. "He's been a great help."
Mayors in Pennsylvania are granted the authority to perform civil ceremonies. Forgie estimates he has led about two dozen himself since taking office. Hours before the service Saturday, he said he had no worries about the performance of his younger peer.
"He said it would be quick, which we were happy about," Forgie said. "He said, 'It'll be short and sweet and cover all the bases.' "
Forgie's family also was excited about Saturday's special guest.
"I'm just proud the mayor of Pittsburgh is doing the ceremony," said Forgie's mother, Donna Forgie, 54, of Turtle Creek. "I think it's great."
Forgie -- like his bride, an eighth-grade teacher at Woodland Hills Junior High School -- laughed Saturday about the fact that he, at 31, would be the elder official at the wedding. He also enjoyed comparing the offices of groom and officiant.
"He has a lot more responsibility, I guess. .... I can imagine the stress he goes through," Forgie said.
"Being able to marry people is a cool part of the job," he added. "I think Luke will enjoy that."
