DHCP Default Gateway

I have a task that requires configuring a DHCP lease for a subnet.
There is a stipulation that for the default gateway, if R1 is down, then
R2 should be the default gateway. I am not allowed to use HSRP.

VRRP seems like a good solution, using the physical address of R1 as the
VRRP address for the DHCP pool.

ip dhcp pool pool1

default-router R1 (VRRP)

Would it also be acceptable to just to include a second address in the
dhcp pool such as

ip dhcp pool pool1

default-router R1 (x.x.x.x) R2 (x.x.x.x)

Thanks
