The gemara in kiddushin tells us that a wife needs her husband to be happy. But don’t forget the gemara is talking about a time that a woman was completelt dependent on a man for her sustenace.

That said, I think the passuk means a husband must go out of his way to make his wife happy. Regardless of what makes her happy. He must do everything in his power to give her that feelinng of security.
