If you opt for two parallel marketing instances, I think you also need a loadbalancer in place..
You can do something more tricky and instead of having two marketing instances in parallel, you opt to configure a failover instance. I haven't done it before, but I would start by creating an active and passive instance. On the passive instance, all services shutdown, and create a shell/powershell script on a cron job to monitor the active instance through various means (i.e - /nl/jsp/ping.jsp?) alerting, etc. and upon failure or connectivity error then activate the passive instance whilst continuing to monitor when the default instance is back online to failover to it again.
You can also opt make your default instance really robust, in my case I developed a few scripts scheduled on a cron job to monitor my services and perform troubleshooting automation, you can try out what works best for you and contact Adobe support to find out how they design/configure failover.
Amit has given a good explanation on a related subject.

And more information on enterprise deployment.
Amit_Kumar perhaps can advise henrique on this subject.
