Non-Orthodox Jewish Vows
Judaism has several branches, so seeing these vows doesn't surprise me.

This is b******t
These are not Jewish wedding vows. The actual ones are what Rabbi Joe said in an above comment. However, in non-Orthodox circles, the woman says the line to the man as well.

nope
Jews don't have vows by the wedding. The man says "behold you are consecrated to me by this ring according to the laws of Moses and Israel" and the wife doesn't say anything. There are also promises in the marriage contract to work and support his wife, and in some Sefardic customs an oath is taken to this effect. The rest of the ceremony is read by rabbis or other guests.
