What does Until death do us part mean when so many couples are divorcing?

The phrase "Until death do us part" means that the only entity which dissolves a valid marriage is death. At the point of death the couple ceases to be married.
Divorce does not dissolve a marriage. Divorce might dissolve the legal implications of marriage, but that is the state's affair. Because God is the one who joined husband and wife, only God has the power to dissolve the union.
Divorce in the Catholic sense simply means that the couple is choosing to live apart for a time. However distance or separate dwellings does not dissolve the marriage. The couple is still in the state of marriage and therefore not free to enter into another relationship. The couple vowed themselves to each other "Until death do us part."
