MS CRM 2011 Create Record and get it's Guid

I write a plugin for creating records and I'm facing following problem:

I have 2 entities. Entity1 and Entity2. Entity2 has a n-1 relationship to Entity1 and got also a lookupfield to Entity1 on it's form. In my plugin code I create an Entity1 record, and after that I want to create an Entity2 record with the lookupfield (to Entity1) filled with the just created record of Entity1. But I got an error. My code looks like this: 

Entity entity1 = new Entity("new_entity1");
//Here I'm filling my entity1's fields
Guid entity1Id = service.Create(entity1);

Entity entity2 = new Entity("new_entity2");
//Here I'm filling my entity2's fields
entity2 ["new_entity1id"] = new EntityReference("new_entity1",entity1Id);

service.Create(entity2);

I'm new to CRM development so I can't really recognize the problem. I assume that maybe everything is created when the plugin code finishes, so the Entity1 record is not created by the time I create the Entity2 record, but it's just my assumption.

Any help would be great.

The error message:

Try doing it this way instead.

entity2.Attributes.Add("new_entity1id",new EntityReference("new_entity1",entity1Id));

As for the exception if it's still thrown after trying the above I can only think of two things.

In the line entity2 ["new_entity1id"] = new EntityReference("new_entity1",entity1Id);

Either new_entity1id is the wrong field name for entity2

or

That lookup field looks up to a different entity and trying to save the EntityReference you create is throwing an Exception.
