What does "wedded to one's gold" mean? Is it an idiom?

Although this sounds like an idiomatic expression, "wedded to one's gold" actually isn't. It's simply a rather descriptive phrase uttered by the speaker to state that the man loves his money - therefore, he's "wedded [married]" to it. "Wedded to X" however, IS an idiomatic expression - it means to be a firm believer of something or to be strongly committed to something. Ex: I tried to get my friend to get an Android phone but he refused. He's wedded to his Apple products. Ex: The politician refused to budge on the issue. He was wedded to the idea of tax exemptions for corporations.
