I like how there aren't many vows as all prep would be done beforehand to make sure you're a good match. The consecration with the ring according to the law of Moses and Israel is very deep. It means you are giving yourself body soul and spirit and committing to love your spouse. The fact that the man says this not the woman shows he is the leader and initiator of the spiritual union of their lives and she will reflect his good character, so men, make sure you are a mature and emotionally rested person for your wife to rest herself in you

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.
